Ok, I wasnt sure. I was checking out my front end and noticed it was kinda sloppy. Maybe I should grease it, anyway thanks.
Tune in later for more of my stupid questions

Yeah ill just do 4.5 in the front first until i have more funds. As far as the soa part the guy who was gonna weld it broke his hand. Does anyone think the bolt on soa kits are dangerous or complete crap? Im thinkin about doing it that way until i get a new rear end.

X2 super clean is all I've ever used and will ever use. I usually dilute it 50/50 with water in a spray bottle and it works just as good.
