Made some progress last night. It's officially back to 2WD! Pulled a rear axle from an 86 Suburban. I was hoping for 3.73 or 4.10 gears, but ended up with 3.42's, which are better than 3.08's anyway. This axle is in great shape where water has been sitting in my old axle.

Also picked up the set of Rally wheels that were on it!

Next up, ordering new suspension bushings and the lowering kit!
