    Buy it in the quart cans and get the a harbor freight gun and spray it... it goes farther than using just the spray cans.

    The camburg housing... u gunna go semifloat to keep the wheelspeed sensors? If you can I’d look into seeing if you can run a gear drive sensor off the trans like the 05-15 6speed 4x4 trannies. That way you can run a proper fullfloat axle.... if your gunna swap to a 9” you might as well get rid of stupid flange axles.... just a thought u might want to consider.

    Why short course links? To keep the bed?

    Ah true, what rear you got in yours right now? I can’t remember if you had plans to get extra beefy on your set up or not.
