Slow going, but im moving...
I picked up some 3/4 ton axles. 10 bolt front end, and whatever the rear is. THey are out of a 78. 4.10 gears. IM going with the ORD cross over steering so im going to blow these apart, new brakes, new bearings, and pick up some more parts from ORD. Unfortunately this knuckle doesnt work so i have to buy the flat top knuckle. Here is some misc. crap pics. Tearing apart the axles is fun.
If anyone knows WHAT size these allan studs are for the hub PLEASE tell me. I went through everything i had and couldnt find the right size. What a PITA.
Buried in all the grease i found the snap ring. That was fun having one side NOT have that and this side did. I couldnt figure it out. So much grease.
Dana. 45-11 So that should be 4.10 gears. Looks ok. There was some rusty corrosion on the ring gear. Hopefully that just cleans right off. We will see...
This is my trans cover. There were 20 plus holes in this thing. Im trying to get it good enough to hide in linex.. Im debating on finding another one. I know they go for a couple hundred and thats not bad, but i keep adding a 100 here and a 100 there. It adds up really quick.
First round of grinding. Need to do some metal work, then regrind. I should get it PRETTY good, my metal skills are ok, but not good enough to get this to 100%
