    Woot! Spare looks good up there!
    That's the same exact place brains axle broke.. I have a set of IFS hub dials if you need them, if yours still operates id roll with it, doesn't seem like it wouldn't.

    I got my trunnion eliminators in today so just waiting on shafts and wheel bearings and mine will be going again.. oh and also may or may not have sourced a s/c and some 36's iroks :cool:

    The dial works but the gasket comes out when you turn it. Also the other piece inside the hub is trashed. Found the whole hub assembly at a local junkyard for $75. So I'll order some new gaskets and snap rings and put everything back together when my axles come in.

    Local junk yards were a bust. They would tell me they had the parts, but when I showed up they only had add crap. Finally ordered these hubs used. Need to get gaskets and snap rings and put this pig back together. 39e85585ba5d0c6a4bec0ed0e2c58f68_b58c39832bfca3b679fe1d05362a22007fb5bb0b.jpg

    A guy had them on eBay. Cheaper for the set than ordering the pieces that I broke.

    Found a spindle/hub assembly from a salvage yard dealer in FL. It will be in next week. Damn, this is starting to get expensive (2 cv axles, manual hubs, gaskets, spindle/hub ~ $670). Shoulda dropped the insurance and put it in the garage till I could SAS it.

    Put the CV axles in on Friday, reassembled the passenger side hub with fresh grease and gaskets. Just waiting for the hub for the driver's side. Ups tracking has it coming in tomorrow. We shall see.

    Man. No luck with any of these salvage yards. This is what they ship me...... 49b50720dc92d922608a34245c54c0df_78802756b66c361508ecc9bdd4d5e510c88877ca.jpg

    Just in case you don't see it, look at the splines in the hub. Freaking ADD......

    In my professional opinion I think you should cut your losses and SAS it :anonymous:

    So Clint... is all this damage caused by your new locker? Would this have happened with any locker?
    I'm thinking about putting the same in the front of my Runner. Curious to know if I should go ahead and get an entire front drive train to haul as spare parts... :rofl:

    Yeah. Without the locker I would not have broken the axle. But the axle break was bad as it damaged the manual hub and wheel hub as well. I could probably get away with putting it back together as is but I already got the spindle/hub ordered.

    Probably too much skinny pedal and a 2 foot drop factored in the equation as well... :eek:
