every thing is all fixed now and should work like a charm and not be Peace of glass


so you have to shorten it by 10 mill on each side if you don't use the 96 and up rear housing and axles

i will have my truck up and running today woot woot


one thing that might work is taken the 96 and up axles and chopping some of the spline off for them to fit 2 Inc's or so ?

Just as a side note, learn where the "macro" feature is on your camera. Check your manual or settings. It will allow you to shoot those close-ups and make sure they're in focus.

hmmmm been on Fordyce, and some other tough trails and beat it to hell and no problems yet....I'll look into this a little more...thanks for the heads up! Idk what year my e locker came from, but maybe different years have different problems?

What was your solution to fix the problem?
