Fixed after my insurance incidents, new rear axle....
Got in two accidents in january (got t-boned and rearended, so both weren't my fault). My rear axle was messed up and making some noises, I fought with insurance and after a couple of weeks they admitted there was something wrong and cut me a check.
Old: 5.29 elocker
New: 5.29 detroit and new bearings on my junkyard axle.
Started yesterday morning at 9am to fix the runner from its insurance woes.
First took out the old axle and stripped it apart.
Some damage from the wreck, chip in the ring gear
Panhard drop bracket being attached
New axle in
Now here comes the fun part, doing the bearings on my new junkyard axle............ we had to make our own tool to bolt the bearing cup to to press it out.
Special Service Tool
bolted up
Got the drivers side completely done, I have done the initial break in on the gears, and waiting to do the passenger side bearings
almost done
