Tub all off

Axles cleaned

Painted up,

6 Yukon 35 spline chromo shafts, 2 Detroit lockers, 2 4.56 Dana gears, two master install kits, 2 solid diff covers, 4 wheel bearing kits, 2 Chevy wheel hubs, 4 calipers, 4 rotors, 2 1350 ubolt yokes, 2 new Yukon spindles, 2 king pin rebuild kits, 2 Yukon hardcore chromo lockouts.

The Dana 20 needed a new front output bearing and seal. So we rebuilt the whole thing. Christine dougherty did most the work again.

Here is the intermittary gear before and after. She Got all the needle bearings In easily.

This was our first gear box rebuild of any kind, we did good nothing held us up, things went smoothly, good instructions is a must and carful disassembly with all parts laid out Nicely helped.

Needed to buy a small bearing separator though.

Replaced the cover gasket on the t18 and changed the mushroom vent to a barbed fitting for vacuum hose to run to higher location for water proofing.
