Not much to update. All of my tools for installing my gears should be here by tomorrow. I'm going to go pick up my ring gear bolt sleeves friday evening and try my hand at installing these gears. I've got my setup bearings made, setup inner pinion race made, new outer pinion race installed, and just got some more lock-tite/silicone.

 

Installed my gears/locker this weekend. I highly recommend Yukon Gear & Axle if you're building an axle for your vehicle. Top notch quality parts.

 

Oh my god its yellow!!! Lol...Very cool dude. I have to road trip it and see that beast!

 

Picked up a BW 1354 a couple months ago for $100. Just getting to rebuilding it now. I'll be ordering a complete rebuild kit from cobratransmissions.com next week. I got the t-case torn down and found the filter for the pump was snapped off and laying in the case. Also, the speedo sensor was messed up and all the seals were shot. I have maybe 2 hours start to finish in sandblasting this. I couldnt even begin to come close to having it this clean by wire brushing it.

 

I see the problem already with that project....There is a capped full bottle of brew on the operating table

 

lol...BIG problem!

 

Haha, that was downed almost immediately after that photo was taken. That beer is what keeps me moving

 

I got 2 cases in the garage, lets pound them and SAS my truck lol

 

Oh god, I can only IMAGINE the outcome of that one... How about we SAS your truck THEN pound them down? lol

 

Lol...that may work out better!

 

You find yourself a Dana 44 with stock 4.09 gears. We'll narrow it 6" and slap it under your truck.

 

First comes the frame swap, then coilovers....SAS probably wont be good for my mall crawler lol

 

Lol no, probably not.

 

We can still do the frame swap and get ripped though lol

 

I'm game lol

 

Excellent!!
