Awesome, how is it? Got any pics? Did you go with open, LSD, locker?

Danger06Ranger 03-10-2009 09:26 PM

Don't know yet, I finished it yesterday and too it back to the body shop so they could finish assembling the front clip. Stops ok for cheap pads and bad rotors. Its god a Ford LSD. I'll get pics when I got time and finish it all up.

I think that if you enter the yard you have to pay the $2. If you look in the back of the local phone book, there is coupons to get in free. My dad actually went around and got a bunch of them for the coupons. They have engine hoist dollies out there with big wheels on them so you could probably just do it by yourself.

Fx4wannabe01 03-11-2009 05:35 AM

Alright!! About time! lol. GET THEM PICS UP!! lol.

I recently sold my expo axle when trying to sell this extra Ranger 8.8 I got. lol. This weekend i'm headed to the JY to pull my expo brakes to install on my 31spline Ranger 8.8 I've got in the truck right now.

Danger06Ranger 03-11-2009 07:00 AM

I'll get pics when I can.
