    Tomorrow would be best. I think I'm working on my HVAC today.

    Are you a member of the 2 wheel drive club now? I haven't done it.

    I know someone else who was a member of that club for a very short period of time. Did you just pull the shaft or did you have to pull the gearing? Didn't you just replace all the fluid back there at the last meet.

    I did. And then I did this saturday and now I have a popping noise in the rear end.

    Yea it was dumb, but it was fun and now I got to pay for it.

    I drained the fluid yesterday and there were lots of shavings on the plug but no chunks. I still think it is in the diff because before that, I jacked the truck up and put it in gear and felt the rear diff and could feel the noise coming from in there if that makes any sense. Im going to limp to a shop tommorow to get a definite answer.

    Im guessing its the ring and pinion and if it is ill just go ahead and get 4:88s all around and an ARB locker up front.

    I was far back in the pack, but there was one point where I saw the hood on his truck while he was driving away from me coming out of a hole. I think the motto is "Moar skinny pedal!"

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    Imagine how I feel....my front wheels don't even rotate under their own will....


    However, I did a bunch of research today and it looks like i'll be able to score something just like my truck but with 4wd for 22-23ish. Found a 2009 swb trd or in georgia for 23.5 and only 50k miles. There is hope!

    Well let me know how much it runs you and where you are getting it from... That is a future mod of mine.. Right before the 37's!

    My old list was-
    1.) Fix 4wd - CHECK
    2.) Get better Front Suspension - In the process (All I need is Shocks!)
    3.) Alcan's - No where near starting this
    4.) 4.88's with Rear LSD and Front Locker - No where near it
    5.) 37's on 17's - Need to stop driving so much so I can save what tread I have left on my current tires!
    6.) Get a daily driver gas saver
