    Great advise. Not having the proper tools for the job at hand has caused me to take twice the time on previous repairs/upgrades

    Pretty much. Blue tape + newspaper + patience goes a long way. I used red engine paint on it.

    From what I've read they are sent at random, and not necessarily a + and a -

    So if you can, put the tougher one on the drivers side but that's not always an option.

    Aye- I just meant I randomly got +/+ so it didn't matter- agreeing with you

    That would certainly make sense given all of the extra weight carried on the driver side. Both of my dakars were "+".

    That's true. ,but if they are different, then put the higher on the drivers side. And to be honest, I'm not sure how much difference it really makes.

    Finished my shackle flip. The truck had not settled yet in picture below but still may move the hanger forward.

    Rear diff fluid change... drained about 2.75 qts and filled w 3qts... still wasn't running out of the fill hole... should I be concerned?
    Also finally remembered to pick up the irrigation drip line to tuck in my front door weather stripping. Hopefully this stops the kazoo effect... will report back when I know more.

    The rear diff calls for a hair over 3 quarts, so you're fine.
