So ten hours later got aussie installed and new rear axle shafts. What a flipping pain in the flipping a$$. Only takes 4-5 hours my flippin a$$. Yeah maybe if you don't have to completly disassemble evrything. What a flipping pain so who wants to do the front for me $$$$$$..Just going to need the new shafts and arb and install kit put in?? Any helpers?? God I hope i did the rear right going to have to repalce all the carrier bearings down the road lookin iffy..... Oh yeah i got a flippin crush pin holding the carrier pinion and only half of it is actually in the pin... But got tires on and it clicks forcing tires in oppisite directions so so far so good. Got the wrong brake pads. Its always the stupid things...
Got the winch on too just got to get my flipping camera to work right and i'll give you guys some pics..

Now I got the rear tore apart to do gears and bearings on the carrier.. Luckily i got the aussie installed in the rear already.. Now i just need to do the 4.56 gears in the rear and I'm back on the trail...

No I meant the holders for when they are disconnected.. I ain't got no skid plate like the instructions say. Sorry about that I meant the pins that hold it when it is disconnected..
Oh how was the snow???

It was cool just need some one else down to go on the harder trails.. Just got to figure out power issues and soft brakes issue.. I think it is the synthtic brake fluid not sure though going to bleed the entire system again...

I was in NAPA a week ago and talked to a roundy-round fella about using synthetic brake fluid in their race cars. He had mentioned that you could have problems if you don't use new or rebuild parts. I think he said it had something to do with the rubber parts being conditioned with the non-synthetic fluid not being compatible with synthetic. He also mentioned that all the non-synthetic needs to be flushed out of the lines. I haven't researched this yet but thought I'd through it out there.

all rubber parts either need to be replaced or rebuilt for them to work properly since the synthetic is a silicone base instead of petroleum base
