so my only day off from work (thanksgiving) i decided to put to use. i finally scrapped my door and put in my new one...
i also decided to stick in my dana 60!
i got the 10 bolt out and the 60 is almost in. i took the 4'' lift springs off and put the 8'' ones on. only problem is the tires that are on the 60 dont fit under the bumper. the jackstands are all the way extended so im gonna have to take the tires off. the lug nuts are rusted and are bigger than 15/16 which is currently the biggest socket i have. im gonna buy some bigger sockets and have a crack at it after work tomorrow. after i get the tires off it should be pretty straightforward. do you guys think i'll have to get longer ubolts for the 8'' spring pack? check the pics. i just wanna know before hand while im out so i dont have to go back out and get ubolts after work. check the pics:

my new door looks a little out of place:
10 bolt skateboarding!

) plate that the centering pin goes in on the axle were too small so it didn't fit right away. I went out and bought a 5/8 drill bit promptly. i got a whole new ubolt kit coming to me tomorrow so i will be able to actually have the axle on the truck then.
