yeah, I've got grease going everywhere around the spacer end of the DS (t-case end).

I'll post mileage shortly....maybe. As it stands I have 15 minutes to get to work and it's going to take 15 minutes to drive to the laundry mat and fold my clothes! $%^^%#&#^%&

stock won't help me...

the CV went, throwing grease. This is due to the lift kit changing the angle of the front drive shaft. Goes for both super lift guys and RCD lifted guys.

well, OEM DS is off. Off easier than I thought it would be given the red lok-liting of 3 of 6 ds hex bolts.

The CV boot is ripped. Gonna go make a sammich, snap some pics, and post em.

Zach, what hardware, if any, comes with the SL DS?
