Washed off the road salt. Decided I am going to swap in my D44s sooner than later, the welded 8.25 is hating life. Sounds like a weld broke, I'm afraid to pull the cover and check..

Need to get a locker for the rear and get the gears installed, then get frame stiffeners and build my three link. Few other small things

You'll love it on the 96 which has the dual diaphragm booster.

You know about prop valve "guts"?

Perfect!!

For those who are reading this thread and don't know about prop valve "guts", here they are.
You take these "guts" from the prop valve of the donor vehicle, typically a 94 to 98 Grand Cherokee.
