    What to do with old parts...

    I wasn't 100% where this belonged, so here it is. I have some old parts from swaps and upgrades. I'm just wondering, what should I do with all this stuff? Can it be thrown in the garbage? If not, then what? Here is a list of what you see in the pictures, just in case you can't quite tell: D35...

    Sooo close #2

    So here is a bit of background. I took my my skid plate to take off the 1inch transfer case drop, when I went to put the skid plate back on, the bolts on the bottom of the TC are not lining up. Any advice on how to get them to line out would be appreciated. Anyone had this problem before?

    Rear diff capacity

    So I put a new diff cover on my ford 8.8 tonight, and when I was filling it up realized it was taking more then usual. Then I realized it was because the new diff cover holds more fluid. It usually takes about 3 quarts, and I added a bit more then that and it's still low, should I fill it up...

    Quick question about sye options

    Here is what i will be referring to: JB Conversions, Inc. So there is the CV option, and the non CV option. I'd want the CV option right..? I'm just confused what the non CV option would look like, and why it would be more. Thank you for your responses ahead of time.

    Measurement for a driveshaft

    I'm trying to get a quote for a driveshaft for after my SYE kit. I am not sure what length to order it or even what length to get it quoted at. I measured my current one using the picture on Tom Woods site, but that didn't help much. If I'm not making sense, just say so. I've attached the...

    Oil pressure?

    So I've noticed my Jeep doing this for awhile, and I'm not sure if its normal or a problem, but after my Jeep warms up, when I'm idling my oil pressure drops pretty low as you can see in the picture. Is this normal? My jeep is my first vehicle with an oil pressure gauge.

    After the swap, wheel spacers?

    So I did the ford 8.8 rear swap on my Jeep and since it is narrower then the stock width, should I get wheel spacers like: Wheel Spacer 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern ? Or is it not that big of a deal?

So my question, which is stupid...

    Feeling kind of stupid..

    So I was checking out my new axle shafts today before i installed them sometime this week, and noticed the inner shafts are covered in a sticky substance, but it comes off with brake cleaner. Should I go ahead and clean them off or is it there for a reason it's there?

    Front diff problems now.. Help!

    So I opened up my front diff for multiple reasons, one was because things sounded a bit off.. And as you can tell from the pictures, they were. It looks like the spider gears are completely done, but the ring & pinion look fine. I was going to change out my axle shafts tomorrow, but I'm...

    Old axle housing.

    So I still have the whole axle housing from my d35 that exploded on me, and I have no clue what to do with it. I doubt anyone would want it really... What are opinions on what to do with it?

    Got my diff covers today.

    I can't wait to install them! But first I should primer/paint it, right? Also, I can't quite figure out what the silver bolts are for. Drain plugs I guess? You can see the holes in the bottom of the covers. By the way, these are from RuffStuff Specialties.

    Cleaning out my differential

    So here pretty soon i am going to do some work on/with my front diff and was wondering what I could use to clean it all out. I just don't want to use anything that would damage anything, or mess with the diff oil when i refill it. Something like brake cleaner? Any other suggestions?

    What to do without parking brake

    So I have a manual transmission, and since i did the axle swap, my parking brake doesn't so squat, but apparently that was to be expected. Anyways! My question is, is leaving it in gear when parked, even on a pretty steep hill, good enough? Any other suggestions?
