Hung some Steel.....

Just a couple that I took from the our section... I think there should be a special punishment for those that shoot glass....

Hmmmm.... I need to update this thread!!! Had some fun with the cut off wheels and the sawzall.... and this happened: I think I might have just crossed the barrier from little leagues, to big leagues.... :O

Update? Long overdue!!! Sorry about the delay. Life got the best of me. Among other small projects (At the end of this post), I finally got around to seeing what was up with the rear end. I lost all rear braking and thus, a brake job is required. What I discovered wasn't pretty. The...

300 mile run today to pick up the kids in Tukwila. The Pinion bearing in the rear end is not afraid to tell me it's very unhappy. So far so good on the lift install. Nearly time to re-torque everything and lube the crap out of it since the front end is squeaking.

Thank you. :) I will be replacing the pinion bearings in the rear end in a couple weeks.

Noises are quieted, however the rear end has a clunk and growl on decel...

Thank you. It'll be ready for pickup tomorrow. Shift fork issues and bearing failure in the t case. Sigh... Just. Empty. Every. Pocket

Love it. You'll need to modify it to fit with an aftermarket bumper though.

Thank you. She's at the shop getting a transfer case rebuild. I drain some very silvery oil out of it early this week. Been running gear oil in it until I could get it in. While it's there, I'm getting an sye put in. No more vibes.

Thank you. :) In partial to joints with lube fittings, but I needed this thing is the road ASAP and the only parts store open that day (veterans day) only had sealed joints. I did pack the living hell out of the caps with grease before I put them in.

Well, after a few year hiatus, I have returned. Sold the '87 2dr years ago and last year picked up a '96 4 door, bone stock. Pavement princess status. Swapped in fresh axle joints. Last week the lift went on. I had 4 wheel parts do this for me. I didn't trust myself to get it done...

Clean your battery terminals very, very well. Mine was doing the same thing until I cleaned them. As for the regulator, yes, it is a Delco as everyone here has said. They are stupidly easy to rebuild and parts for them are usually fairly cheap.....

Thats a trac-loc equipped unit FO SHO! Looks identical internally to mine, which still has the tag....

Oops... I misread the darn thing.... I will join one of these days. Maybe the local (to me) site first......
