    Oh man. Bought some new leaf springs, but can't get them installed. These bolts holding the old leaf in are a pain. Couldn't even get it with a bfh. All I did was dent the end of the rebar I was using to hit the end of the bolt with. Tried to cut them out with reciprocating saw. Ruined the blade...

    I think I should have placed them a little closer in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Well there's yer problem right there... I said from the start of believed it was a pinion bearing. Everything else seemed ok. Gears look good, spiders I'm not 100%, but no obvious chunks out. I'll hold off on spiders till I replace with a posi or locker. Either way I could change them without...

    Can I get a locker and replace the spider gears with it? Do some lockers use the Spider gears? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Do you think I should get new spider gears as well? Ppl can't leave things that aren't theirs alone. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The link wasn't working properly. But I found what you were doing me to. However, in order to get a kit before this weekend, my choices were limited. Local gear shop only carried motive kits, and they are seriously acting like snobs. So I'm going to pick up...

    Nevermind! Shop thinks it's a rear bearing of some sort. Wants $850 to replace all the bearings. Yeeeeahhhh, no. Anyone know a good rebuild kit? Not going to have time to get a 14 by the time we need this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Shop test drove it, says the rear noise is brake related. Says the front diff has some bearing problems. They are going to put it on the rack tomorrow to make sure. Ballpark is $1000 for reman front diff installed. [emoji15] Is there any way to disconnect the front and drive 2wd? Sent from my...

    Does it still need to be semi float vs full float? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yes. I'll have someone else listen as well for a second opinion. But when I tested everything, I spun the drivetrain and listened at each wheel and the diff. It sounded to me like it came from the diff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yes, I will go ahead and replace all the bearings I can get to. I don't like doing things twice. I'm just not sure if any/all of the gears need replacing. I opened the rear end due to an unknown scuffing sound. However, I'm going to have to put everything on hold for a couple months. Had...

    There appeared to be full fluid, dark brown. It was a little frothy from spinning it, so I sprayed some brake cleaner to see better. I honestly think there is a bearing issue somewhere. Pinion or carrier? Sound isn't coming from wheels, so they aren't the culprit... For now.....[emoji23] I've...

    Did some checking on the rear end. Jacked up the rear end, took the cover off and turned the tires, driveshaft, and even put it in gear. When the gears spin, there is a slight scuffing noise and it seems to bind a little. It will spin easily until it hits the same spot. Then it takes more...
