Well not good news. I was assured it was a rebuilt good to go rearend... well it might have been if he would have done it correctly. It’s my fault I tried to save money and buy this one. You know the saying.... you’ll always spend whatever it costs the second time to do it right. This has never set in more to me now. And I doubted it that day. Pinion gear and race welded together from heat and the gears were blue. No oil after I opened the rearend. Must have leaked out after filled. It sucks but it was setup incorrectly so it would have happened either way.

I’ve enjoyed this long ride. Don’t get in a hurry just have a good time with it. Don’t let it disrupt the family finances either. In the end these are just trucks.
