ah so i just swapped shafts in my D30 and dispite my best efforts my inner seals don't like the new shafts. Is there any make of seals better than the others? If I'm gonna do this I wanna get the best ones. The seals in there now came from a usa standard gear master install kit and are only a month old if that.

Let it get hot/ warm, undo the wiring harness and mine came out fine after 175k. Not too bad once they release from being kinda stuck lol.

I went to start the jeep earlier, it was ticking a little. Turned it off and went back inside for a few minutes, came out started it and its missing like a mother ****er. Oil is dark, but I don't see anything in it. I drove I 60 miles today, ran perfect. Was running fine when I parked it a few hours ago. Has plenty of coolant, didn't run hot, now all of a sudden, it runs like **** any ideas?

They make an o2 sensor socket that allows you to slip the socket over the o2 with damaging the wires. Makes the job super easy.

Depends on the Jeep. I heated mine up as much as I could, had to take it to a shop where the mechanic heated it until it was red... And still had to use a long wrench
