Message: [QUOTE="mjonesjr, post: 196501, member: 1076"] I got some more progress done today. Got the spindles off. AutoZone has a nifty tool that screws on the spindle and a slide hammer that beats the spindle off. As tight as they were on there, there was no other way to get it off. Once they were off, a TON of anti-seize went back before the spindle did. The old dust shields were rotton, so they came off for good. I also got a nice new set of MileMarker Supreme lockouts. With the new bearings installed in the freshly turned rotors, the hubs/rotors, and lockouts got installed. I also got the track bar bracket straightened.

I don't know what the info stamped on the ring gear means, but I hope it means the same thing the tag on the diff says, that there is 3.55 gears installed.

Saturday, unless I have a long incident Friday night or Saturday morning, the swap will happen. More to come then. [/QUOTE]
