Replacing u-joints and rotors on K-10

I've looked, but haven't really found a clear answer to this. I am replacing the ball joints, ujoints, and probably rotors on my Dana 44 in my K-10 this weekend. Is it typical that I would have to replace any seals in the hub when I do this? I'm not even sure that it would need rotors, but though since I'm in there, why not. I just don't want to be surprised when I get it apart and find out that there is a seal in there that would typically need replacing.

Thanks!

I did mine last summer, if I remember right there is one on the back of the hub, there was also an o-ring on the 4x4 dial on mine.
It is definitely not as easy as the new trucks.

Thanks, I'll ask about the seal then, when I pick up the rotors. Hopefully they'll have both in stock. Also, I agree on the new one's being a lot easier. At least as far as rotor replacement.
