Pff it'll buff out. A real man would have used gum and twigs, patched it together and kept going.

I am jelouse, your truck is looking wicked matt. Mud looks gross and slick.

Time for some Cromo's to replace that axel.

Looks sweet man. One word of advise tho.... Stay away from the off brand u-joints. Your axle will thank you.

You should be able to get the spicer brand 760 at napa (part number 5-760x) for around 25 bucks a peice. They are much stronger than the off brand stuff.

US Alloy is out of business, which leaves Yukon chromos, and those suck, and Moser Alloys..

Yukon foreign are like 475 a set, american made is in 600s accoring to Jon.

Mosers are like 700 for the shafts..

thenn CTM Joints for $400 ish

oh it was, when it was on the trailer all we could see was a few chips off the pinion and we were all confused, today when he popped the cover off we understood why it was making such horrid noises

I think i have the 297 joints? ikd much about the shaft junk yet, i need to do more reading. I think some moser alloys and CTMs are next on the list

Katemcy rocks, idk if anyone's heard of it.. but its closing in July for good so i need to get a move on getting the truck ready for real rock crawling..
