Seams no one local to me stocks kroil But everyone will order it. 🙄
Looks like I'll have to replace the abs pump module as well. Good thing everything is fresh 🤣
Chasing a few leaks as well. Think mainly brake fluid.
Should have checked this when the engine/trans was on the floor. Or at minimum before I sat the cab back on..
Good news it's frozen in 2wd, bad news it's frozen in 2wd.. it cycled before I tore everything down.
Nice it's a mechanical, I'd probably be really annoyed stripped encoders out
Also...
Got it out of the shop, little rubbing on the tires, no bolts in the tbar keys and no compression bump stops in currently, front will most likely come up ~1"
cleaning/organizing the shop
Both engine and transmission pans are extremely rusty I bought a trans gasket and filter, I've got several clean OEM engine oil pans plus PPE version, looking at getting a PPE trans pan as well
Right now just getting the basics caught up
It runs, did a little burn out in the shop, a lot of axle wrap/hop with no shocks on the rear lol.
took almost a gallon to top the trans off between it leaking and lines and coolers where basically dry,
Got a complete front bumper this morning,
Got enough on to start it and get fluid levels set, power steering and transmission
Needs new batteries soon.
Changed trans spin on, might have been an original, there was some stuff on the magnet not much
I know a lot of people that make more than me but have substantially less "free money" at the end of the week, they got some nice toys that collect dust though
07.5 and newer are 1480 factory
It was on firepunk forum that I saw it..
Looking at ~900-1100.00 for complete unit from these guys running 1410 or 1480

Friend was joking about "big money" getting my stock driveshaft retubed and new ujoints for little over 5 bills.
Told him nah that's just barely above stock sent him DHD links , for the 5"x .125 wall aluminum tube yoke and pinion yoke and your ~1500.00 in parts and still dont have anything...
I've got married friends that are single income, they gave up keeping up with the Jones long time ago, ran across a guy at a customer he and his wife purposely work part time and homeschool.
One of my sisters just squeezed out baby #6 and is a stay at home mom/wife.
As a single guy never...
I don't.... Yet...
Probably will with ~6-650hp with a Quick responsive spooling turbo(s) and 35" It probably will be money well spent.
Think, raw wooded hilly land and a 4*4 towing a ~20-22k GN full of equipment and supplies to homestead with possible copious amounts of throttle 😎
No, I got the one off my old LMM dually, it's in substantially better condition
Figured is see if I could duplicate this at a later date

That looks better, I have a clean stock front shaft that'll go in for now, to replace the original rusty unit, drive line store said ~425, they'll re tube with 2.250* .125 wall and u joints
