RC did some Distribuor wiring done

 

All the little things add up to the big overall project being done before you know it. Looking good!

 

Thanks Rich. All RC's tools and knowledge make this a lot easier on me. I can do this stuff....but RCs knowledge takes hours off my time.....hours is time and hours ends up days ....then weeks....etc

 

Yes I need to get Alan and RC up to my place again, I get all kind sof stuff fixed with them up here together.

Paint interior
Fix the 4x4 with shaft from parts diff I have.

 

Starting our job today....the input shaft for the 4x4 is missing.....



Taking off the diff cover....please let there not be a mess of metal be all over the place.....



Close up of no input shaft



The job is now a lot more involved....check bearings , new seals , of course the shaft.., etc etc... but this is ok with me.

 

Forgot to mention the fact that I yanked the brake calipers out ...one set of pistons were wearing the brakes uneven and and going to replace both of them now including the brackets. For only $4 more....

 

This is literally out the back door of RC'S shop....beautiful . Would give me more peace if i wasn't so dang busy lol.



Second picture is the front diff taken apart. What we found? A new set of gears...new bearings new seals....all put in with no drivers side input shaft....

Going to clean it all up put new seals on the outers..new warn locking hubs and calipers and brakes and some fresh paint here and there and put it back together again.
