can yall see these? or do you have to be friends?

Thats another thing, i didn't think much of that little clock spring in the t-case.. the one thats in there isn't wrapped up all the way i guess, compared to the one out of the doner? t-case, it kept slipping out coming down one hill, then here it did it again. stupid piece of **** t-case haha

Think that may cause a dodge tranny to shift funny as well?

Probably, maybe the blinker fluid is leaking into the trans somehow? And I bet my muffler bearings are bad, which is probably causing me to run rich.

sooooo

now I'm scared.. Jon's posi 3rd broke today, and he cracked the carrier.. and I tend to be rougher on stuff than he is. urgh

anddddd we ordered them from the same ebay seller... I KNEW i should have just got a damn spool..

he was saying the axle was acting like it was spooled, he pulled the 3rd member and when he spun the pinion you can hear something in the carrier clanking around, then stuck his hand in the housing and started pulling out teeth from what I'm assuming were the spider/side gears..
