Are they leaking or grinding? If not, keep running, regular maintenance and small tires they go forever

 

Fair enough.... would you consider it a weekend worth of work to swap 3rd members and install new bearings and seals into my existing axle then?


I honestly only wanted another housing so I could paint it and make it look pretty off the truck before installing it

 

I’ll be pushing daises before Dan’s truck runs again.

Hell my Nissan is almost done and I did a semi restoration on it.

 

It's a days worth of work, afternoon with two people.

 

I dunno


I needa extended the diff breather on the 02 before it rusts shut and pops the seals

 

Fixed

 

@eon_blue do your cats do this when you are working from home? My wife is taking a timed midterm and the cat sits on her books.

 

Since my axle shafts are fine, I really only want the housing.. I doubt he has any third members for me to rebuild

 

yup, both of ours are tuxedo cats too and will plop down on anything you're doing at the table or on the couch. Papers, laptops, anytime the remote or phone is missing the first place I check is under the cats.

 

Forgot about them, found one 2 hours away with a bad hanger bearing for $200. Probably my best bet.

 

I think that's an okay deal personally. I had my driveshafts rebuilt at a shop it was almost 500 for the pair of them

 

whew, I had heard of people getting driveshafts shortened for $100 but if I dont have a shop that will shorten it I guess its not too bad of a deal.
Plus I replaced my center bearing not too long ago so I can just toss that on.
Thanks for the help man

 

Of course! Glad to see your project coming along

 

We're almost there!! After the driveshaft I just need to regear the rear axle

 

My first one slept like 7 hours straight when she was a couple weeks old and that freaked us out. The second one was up every hour. She still sleeps like crap and she's 7!

 

He’s got plenty of housings and some of them have thirds.

 

How much was it for you to freight that axle combo you sold?

 

$300 for the LTL shipping and $150 for me to build the crate.

Keep in mind I sold that guy a bunch of parts like suspension and a gas tank.

 

haha yeah, the first time ours actually slept the whole night when she was a couple months old we freaked TF out in the morning thinking something awful must have happened. Nowadays it's like winning the lottery if I actually wake up on my own and not to the sound of crying lol.

 

How far of a drive are you from Nelson?


It might be cheaper for me to just drive south and pick up everything I want at once








I have a problem. And I can feel Zane shaking his head at me through the internet
