So here is an inside view of the Dana 80. Just incase someone with one wants to see the inside! It's not near as intimidating as it looks.

Check out this video on YouTube:

Good job David. All this looks familiar, just not as bad.

So I finished my bearings and front and rear brakes! Now is there a proper way to break the brakes in? I've heard a couple ways but not sure if they apply to normal brakes. I'm driving home without using them so in the morning I can break em in if I get an answer!

Proper break in for brakes is to us very light application of the brake pedal for the first 100 miles or so.
Need to give the pads time to "bed in" to the rotor.
After that drive it like you stole it.
