Onto the front. Got it all torn apart. One of the stub shafts had a bit of a twist in it...
I tore it all apart. Even took the pinion, shims, and bearings out. Some of the bolts on the OX locker decided to back out and contact the inside of the housing. Lots of metal shavings and bearing wear.
I had to drill and tap the top of the housing for the ARB air line fitting. Not much fun with the lack of room. I didn't feel like taking the axle out of the truck. Used a 90 degree close quarters drill that was my father's. Got it done.
