Houston area (along with DB's not from Houston) BS thread

Lol he is Asian!
and most of his shit is used!

 

I still would imagine a used +3.5 kit with shocks wouldn't be cheap

 

Probably spent all his college money on his truck

 

What's everyone one doing for the 4th??

 

Either will be at a lake house in Conroe, or sailing around Galveston.

 

Drinking and playing with fireworks

 

Either hanging out at the beach or going to New York. Hopefully the first part lol

 

Leaking front diff fluid on both sides where the CVs come out of the diff.
Anyone fixed this before that can provide a parts list and if any special size sockets or tools are needed?

 

Good luck getting info on here.

 

How the hell did that happen?

 

NO idea how it happened but taking some stuff apart to inspect a little more.

 

Just replace the seal inside. Have you ever taken the cv out before?

 

Nope. 68,xxx miles and no issues till now.
So I need a front axle seal?

 

Me and lyndall did his not to long ago

 

Yup, and a seal puller? I think that's what it's called lol pretty easy job. Itll take some time being this is your first time

 

I'm sure there is a write up somewhere on how to do it

 

I little pry bar will pull it out.

 

I'm sure it would. Don't think lyndall tried it though

 

Write up...

Remove wheel
Remove both bolts that hold spindle. (Bottom)
Pry out cv from diff (let it hang down under diff)
Pry seal out.
Install new seal
Line up the cv - use a long pry bar and hammer it back in.
(Put some grease on the snap ring)
Bolt spindle back up
Put tire back on.

Check diff fluid.

 

Thank you sir. Calling part stores now to see if anyone has them in stock.
