Re: To Do List

Well, I made some progress this weekend but not as much as I would like.

I got the rear axle re-geared, sealed, and installed. Has a great pattern as well and so far the seal job on the shaved rear 60 is not leaking

I found a set of temporary wheels so I could mount my tires and it now rolls around. Still looking for a set of 15" beadlocks though in the meantime...

I have done all the necessary bodywork and wetsanded the rig. The necessary trim has been pulled in anticipation of the paint as is the mirrors and other incidentals. I have an Easter dinner tonight so I am going to paint it tomorrow. :bunny:

A little odd luck. The casting of my steering box broke so that delayed some of my progress here today while I fiddled with that. Luckily I have that Durango box showing up soon. Very wierd. :wierd:

All this plus I shortened a HP Dana 44 front to waggy width. I am tired.

Off to the back for more work.....
