You keep saying input shaft, I'm guessing you're meaning short-side axle shaft.....

BORDERBUM is gaining momentum as a positive member of FTE.BORDERBUM is gaining momentum as a positive member of FTE.
RC and I got some work done today...I came home looking like I had been sprayed in grease oil.... face was almost camouflage..lol
Cleaned out front diff
Cleaned and painted steering knuckles
Cleaned and painted hubs
Cleaned and painted heat shields
Cleaned and painted bracket for brake calipers
Cleaned hub bearings

Installed newer f150 duel horns I got at local salvage yard. RC talked me into installing them in front of the radiator support. Sounds louder that way. AND out of the way..
Cleaning still needs done before reinstall of gears and etc .. I'm sure it needs a couple hours before reinstall. new Warn all metal gold colored 4x4 hubs. All new seals and dust boots everywhere...

Looks good Jeff. You and RC are going to town.
Don't get too burned out. We have another truck to play with shortly.
