dont worry they'll be plenty of little jeeps there lol

 

lets see if I can break my d35 while Im there. Itll be a good excuse to do an axle swap lol. Ryan, you still got that extra 8.25 laying around?

 

na sold it a while back

 

i've got a 8.25 housing needs new shafts brakes ext but i'd sell it to you cheep

 

I have 2 shafts but they are non c-clip.

 

Yeah I think I have a c-clip d35. Would the non c-clip shafts work or no?


Iron, Im kinda half joking about the axle swap. Dont have the time or money right now. If you still have this hanging around in a few months I may hit you up for it. Thanks man

 

yeah your shafts are c-clip. the non c-clip shafts wouldnt work because there would be no way to hold the shaft in the housing, the c-clip would have nothing to "clip" to

 

oh yeah huh? duh .lol longgg day. Took 4.5 hours to put in my new shackles. If you can imagine something that could have gone wrong it probably happened today.

 

This pic pretty much sums up my day. This is a friend trying his hand at an extremely stubborn bolt

 

Oh try that on a 88 xj lol boy did they suck.
I had to cut the floor open on both ends of the spring cause the inside bolts just spun.

 

Wow, haha yeah luckily my upper shackle bolts came right out. It was the lowers that were the biggest pain in the ***.

The funniest part about it is on the directions where it says "drive away time 45minuets" . 45 mins my ***

 

Oh the best part is when the bolt gets seized in the spring bushing.

 

Yepp that was one of the main problems yesterday. 2 hours spent on that ONE bolt. lol

I wish I had been putting in all new springs. I would have just taken the angle grinder to everything and been done with it.

 

Thats why I put antiseize on every single thing I put back together.
I'm not going through that again lol
