Settle down.

Thanks. Tools definitely make a world of difference. Thankfully my boss let's me use the shop for all my stuff.

Nope, yet you're keeping tabs on who gets what compliments???

Just keep the whining to your own threads.

Will talk about this truck in this thread......

This weekends progress! I got the front axle out and removed all the suspension brackets. I'll tear the 60 apart and figure out what all i need to order. Hopefully I can get all the front brackets welded up this week.

I was wondering about leaving that in there during the week with no front suspension. It all made sense when I got to the fork lift picture.

Haha ya that wouldn't have gone over well. I was a little nervous about it falling off the forks but a few ratchet straps held it nicely
 
I got the 60 torn apart last night. Looks like I'll be replacing all the bearings and seals. Kingpin bushings are cracked but the lower bearings seek to be good. I'm a little concerned about the carrier. It looks like it was chewed up previously by pinion. The gears in it now look ok to me.

Replace that carrier man. That's a little too deep to not. A little bit is fine but that thing is hammered they do not take kindly to that kind of abuse.

New carrier is what a hundo? Lots cheaper than replacing everything in there

I'm going to do something. I have a full spool that I thought about using to be cheap. Otherwise find another open carrier or buy a tru Trac
 
Yeah, when I read the carrier was chewed on, I was going to say that is fairly common, and not to worry about it, but that one is a little too chewed on. Doesn't a Detroit for a Dana 60 replace the carrier?

Yeah the Detroit would replace all of it. What's your opinion on a spool for now. I've got it already and I'm trying to save a little money
