    Couple weeks by the sound of it. I'm expecting a more accurate date here shortly as they get in touch to sort out colors and options.

    Finally trying to track down a nasty vibe at highway speed. One of the last things I need to address.

    Found my slip joint has all sorts of play. You can rotate it a degree or two and move it side to side. Picking up a new used driveshaft this weekend. Also has a small dent and have hit it several other times, you can see it at idle in 1st gear.

    Also found a have a bent axle shaft. :annoyed:

    Yes. I figured that weeble wobble you pointed out at RT had to do with the broken leaf spring and the axle sitting crooked.

    Didn't measure the runout. That's a horrible freight gauge so I just used it to get a rough idea.

    Squeaky Penguin's 'What's broke this time' build?

    Trying to figure out where it might have happened, but not sure. Jumping certainly didn't help.

    Looking into my options, but a new axle isn't in the cards right now.

    @jubei what did you determine on axle shafts? The Trail Gear ones clearly will not work with the elocker ABS housing. Looks like Yukon will be my best bet.

    Correct. The trail Gear chromoly shafts will not work with abs.
    Theres a guy selling some yukon shafts but I would suspect they are they same as the TG shafts.

    Yukon shafts ordered.

    New OEM wheel bearings ordered. Feels like I just replaced those.

    Headed back to Utah next weekend and I'm determined to get everything together and hopefully rolling without vibes before then.
