Front end teardown

99TanTaco · 04-16-2008, 06:40 PM

I suppose I should prob pull apart my front end and figure out how much $$$ we're looking at this time

. I need a second hand to pull/reinstall (mostly reinstalling) the diff but otherwise I can pretty much get it by myself. I'm in no big hurry as I don't have money to fix it anyway

And we can do this at my work/ home or anybody elses place

I now what you mean I have to rebild my shoke towers make the front drive shaft and make some bump stops for the back of the truck .

yep, wheeling is expensive and tends to lead to work

Sounds like it's about time for another WOT

I would love to help but you all live so far north and with the price of gas I may have to pass, I am trying to save my pennys for a new Idler arm and custom tie rod couplers.

thanks guys

, whenevers good for you guys, If you guys don't wanna drive I can bring it up to one of your places, if not we can do it at my house or work, whatever works best for you guys

I basically wanna just tear it down, figure out what parts I need then reassemble it so I can keep driving it till I can afford to order whatever I need to fix it

I'm guessing 2-1/2 to 3 hrs depending on how much time we spend BSing and drinking coffee

I am on call this weekend but don't plan around me. I will try to fit in when ever you all have the time.

its gonna be a few weeks prob before I can do this, while I was on vacation (the Wed before we went wheeling thru last Wed) some crap went down at work and I'm gonna be busy for a couple weeks till they get things straightened out

Hey Terry,

I have a complete ADD front diff with 3.58's. I know that the gears and the tube with the ADD actuator won't help you much, but if you need any of the case parts, or if anything from that diff will help you, just let me know. I need to get the thing outta' my way anyway.

99TanTaco · 04-23-2008, 07:27 PM

Thanks Eric

I have no idea when I'm gonna get to tearing it down, they did some housecleaning at work while I was on vacation and I'm kinda working some crazy hours right now filling in till they get some decent people hired
