Re: jimmy build

little update.
the passenger side seal finally gave so went to napa to get a new one. ill post the part # later for people with eatons, but after putting the new one on and trying to reinstall the hub, the outer bearing gave away also. a few of the tapered bearings fell outta the encasing and turned sideways and upon inspection, it completely fell apart. i found napa had to options for outer bearings. one was a cheap $28 replacement, came with race and bearing, but apparently that is only available online and the local napa said the only one they can get is a $63 replacement. but its supposed to be a good one so im going to buy new outers for both sides.
also went to the local pick n pull and got a window regulator, arm rest, door panels, radiator clamps, battery tray, and misc. other small parts. so its a few steps forward and a couple back.
