    I've never had an issue when wheeling. It is locked in tight. Only issue is theft.

    Met up with @BartMaster1234 today. Yes, I was able to pull him out from under his truck for a few minutes.

    Took a front diff off his hands. Unfortunately for him, a salvage yard told him the diff was 4.30 but when he counted, it was a 4.10 diff. Glad to be able to get it out of his way, and put a little cash in his pocket.

    Thanks Tyler!

    First step towards the El Taco Diablo 4x4!

    It's the low profile box. Model# is 73215002
    Really nice box for the price!

    Thanks, I’ll check it out. Need to make sure there’s enough clearance since I got a drop in bed liner.

    That's a nice looking box. I like the Kobalt, especially for the price. I've got my eye on the side boxes though.

    Yeah, it's actually made by Better Built. Just has the Kobalt badge riveted to the front. I'm very happy with it.

    Tried to replace my rear main seal but it needs some special shaft type seal puller. Ordered one off Amazon Prime and I'm getting it tomorrow. Tried a pick but that's in there good.

    Front drivetrain is going in now.
