I was just crawlin around looking at my front and rear Axles
front looks like it is leaking and back is grinding I think the bearings are going.

I really need A trust worthy shop to do both, that wont screw me...... Any input would be appreciate

I may have A take of set off a 93 with the same gear set not sure if i should just bite the bullet and deal with what I have or buy more than likely another set of problems

 

tough call there brother. I would fix what you've got personally.


My bud Jay huntley does good work. he owns Chanda Precision motorworks. thats where my dually is parked.

 

yea was just kinda thinking the same .... Big thing is getting a shop to do them properly . I know i cant do them no tools period to do it right

oh I will have to come in this week to drop the shaft off for ya

 

Roxx, you getting the truck together? I can't wait to see how it works out for ya.

 

Well As of about 3 days ago all I had to worry about was RUST lol ... Now it looks like i have a bad bad bearing in the rear and the seals on the front are leaking . lol And advanced didn't send me the right Transfer case mounting bracket
I am torn My buddy has a set of axles of a 1993 truck that will bolt up but not sure how much he will want for them ... OR the other option which i am leaning towards is just bite the bullet and rebuild the ones i have, only prob there is I do not have the tools or the experiences to do this.

Oh just anyone know of a SWEET 1st gen running around the Olds, Didsbury area Yesterday and today All white lifted VERY big thumbs up

 

just pull the pan off the rear diff see were the issue is , most likely pinion bearings easy to fix , and the front thats just seals , no biggie as well likly someone was not carefull when putting alxes in cut the seals seen it many of times , diffs are not as hard as everyone makes them out to be , just nuts and bolts ,

it's the services that keep these diffs going , my diffs have 500 000km on them there still ok , but i services them every year half oil half lucas
