    Looks like that one sticks out a little further than the rest.

    So I won this Molle panel that mounts to your spare tire. It’s coming in the mail but I don’t really have use for it so gonna try and sell it to buy some progressive AAL’s. Offering it up to you guys before it arrives. Once it’s here I’ll post it in the for sale forum if none of y’all want it. Asking $170

    It does. The other 3 are short from birth defect. Makes that one an easy target.

    Test drive: no good! Axel seal leaking. I replaced it, because ecgs recommended to since I have 320,000 miles on it. Wish I didn’t. Now I got to figure it how to fix it.
    Any suggestions?

    Unfortunately it will be a complete rinse and repeat. There is supposed to be a spring inside it. If it got loose, that could be the problem. They are pretty much impossible to reseat while in the diff. I think replacing the seal is worse than the bearing.

    I don’t have any pics handy but mine cracked there too. I believe it’s from “spirited driving”. Anyways, first I attempted to TIG it. Split back open next trip out. Then I cut it all out around the crack and welded in a piece of 14 gauge. Has held up thus far.

    Ask everyone I have wheeled with, but I don’t off-road spirited. But I did run a washboard road out in Moab (22 miles I believe) at 35/40 this spring. Not sure when this happened, just noticed it today though.

    This is going to be a pain to weld up.

    That’s the type of driving that’ll do it. I’d bet it cracked then and spread.

    Anybody get a video?

    I used to be the weld engineer in a bus frame shop and I now work with the best welder I have ever seen. He might be willing to tig it for you for a price.

    Anybody in here that’s a sparky (EE) or has experience, your help would be appreciated.

    If I run a dual battery setup with this Blue Sea ACR https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001VIXLRO/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_i_geYADb5SE36KT can I run different sized batteries?

    I was planning on running two group 35s and I bought 1 last week when my stock battery died. But, I just realized I can get a group 31 for less than a 35.

    Prediction. Bo Nix starting QB for Auburn until 0-6, then Murphy my Mini Schnauzer will be put in. Soon after Gus will be fired and my pup will take the blame for the horrible 0-11 record.

    Auburn Football 2019 season. :thumbsup:

    I thought he done pretty good for a true freshman with a crumbling line and a non-existent defense. Gotta run before you can pass.

    Play calling has been horrible (big surprise there). Agree Gus is gone after this year.

    Gus needs to be gone before this game is over. I'm sick of this garbage.

    This on TV is not Auburn football. It's a joke with a side of run it up the middle cause I don't know what to call.
