Replaced the rear u-joint in my new Tom Woods shaft. Less than 800 miles on it, I guess I must have tightened the u-bolts a little too much.;D

Looks good. Are you getting ready for the Bama Brawl.

Trying to get there - if they ever decide where it's going to be:p.
I've still got to install Redneck Ram and extended radius arms as well as trying to get these tires to fit.

I drove it for roughly 10 min with no problems!!!!!
With the exceptions of the blinkers not working and the gas guage not working.. But it didn't smoke or break or catch on fire!! So I'm loving it so far!!

what a day, or 3 hours rather.

Changed the gear oil in the rear axle:
1. Remove tires (10 lugnuts)
2. Remove spacers (10 lugnuts)
3. Remove brake drum
4. remove axle (8 nuts)
5. disconnect rear driveshaft (2 u-bolts - 4 nuts)
6. remove 3rd member (~8 nuts)
7. scoop out remainder of gear oil
8. scrape off old gasket
9. reinstall 3rd member (~heavy)
10. reinstall axles
11. Reinstall brake drums
12. reinstall spacers
13. reinstall tires
14. pump in ~1 gallon of gear oil and clutch modifier
15. piss off wife (repeat in each step)

I was going to fix the rear brake line that broke, but the flaring tool stripped when flaring the end...blah...
