THIS CLOSE to 4wd again!

got the 4.10 front in this past weekend...pictures forthcoming when i get them downloaded. apparently i did very bad things to my diff...little pieces came out and stuff's all scratched up. i guess if i had to break it, at least i did it well and thoroughly lol!!

so now just gear oil and whatever it was i lost to reconnect the driveshaft is all that's left. come on, pay day! then i believe an obx run will be in order!

(*wishes* so long as t-case survived all of this!)

p.s. there is space in my pm box now
