    The last set that blew (on the truck atm), are, or rather were brand new (non remans) from Rock Auto. After I get the front end s**t taken care of, I'll take another look into going that route.. Talking to a couple places I could get AC Delcos for $600-some dollars, at my dads mechanic shop...

    Alright guys, I will try to summarize this the best I can. I've owned my 08 2500hd Dmax since January (my first diesel) and it currently has 198k on it. I replaced both front axle shafts w/ Napa rebuilts back in April when the others blew out. Put about 5-10k mi on, and then in May/June, both...
