    Actually it's quite common for the driver side bearing on the output shaft to go, especially when you wheel it. Realistically, I could have gotten away with just replacing the bearings and seals. But this is a good opportunity to add a locker upfront. So my truck is just sitting in the driveway while I wait for parts.

    I thought it was more becasue your rebuilding your diff. That needle bearing isnt too hard get to. Im going to replace mine with the bushing when I swap.

    That new setup will be sick. You just order the clamshell assembably with arb from ecgs then?

    Just the new spindle, bearings and bushings. Apperantly the Factory spindle is cast, not machined, so the spider gear wiggles a bit, and that causes it to leak around the bearing. I've also heard that switching to a machined spindle will alleviate that issue. Either way, I guess I'll find out. Lol
