I always work. Always. I'm accustomed to not doing anything I wanna do. I did seventeen 12-hour shifts in December, spent most of January out-of-state for work, and I work 10 of 15 days this month (not counting the time I spent home on leave).
I ran angry eyes for a while, and they seriously cut down on light output. Our stock headlights don't put out much light as it is, and when I replaced mine (one was chipped), I realized how much I was missing before. I won't do it again. I don't feel safe driving through the mountains and not being able to see deer by the road.


So on the way home from work, I changed lanes to pass someone. In the middle of the lane change, a pigeon landed on the road about 50 ft ahead of me. I put myself slightly off-center to avoid the diffs, and I watched it fly away in the rearview after I drove over it. Remind me how my Jeep is bad for the environment?

she's already lifted 3" and has 31s underneath. I have the D30 up front although I'm not sure what gears are inside.
I don't plan on going any bigger on the lift or tires, just trying to get the things underneath behaving properly. Not sure how often I'll get to wheel it seeing how it's supposed to be the warden's dd.

Unfortunately I am not going to make it Saturday.

If you have no plans on beefing up the drivetrain, or wheeling hard I'd say go for the rebuild. One hell of a lot cheaper and less time consuming than a full axle swap. Besides, you are more than likely gonna have to put money into JY axles (like I did) and that jacks the final pricetag up...
JMHO

Ahwwwwwww and I was so looking forward to see what stunt you were gonna pull next

Anybody from up your way going?!? I'll get them the towhooks for ya

Silentj

Thanks. We'll see once the parts come in. Maybe I'll do it if you, Justin, Mike, and some of the other veterans are there.

looks like the rebuild is the way to go. plus, I think talking about an axle swap will go over like a lead balloon right now.

any recommendations to add to the list of things to do along with the master install kit and inner seals?

pulltabmike

If I have the time, I'm in. Just gotta get it closer down my way

BTW, never done one, and I ain't skeered
