S-10 Chassis Question

[Thadious]

On the rearend that I used, I ended up pulling the axle shafts out and replacing both seals (5 bux each) and the seal around pinion (10 bux). All in all $25 for the whole works and peace of mind for quite awhile. It gives you a great opportunity to check the bearings for scoring, overheating and the shafts as well. One thing to check while you have it apart is to ensure the vent for the axle is clear, if you have to clean it out you can get something inside to catch the crap.

Since you're converting to disc, your brake parts are all new, so no biggie there. And I used stock shocks, but I only put Belltech's 2" lowering blocks in mine (I intend to replace the springs later, or have them re-arched).

Cheers,
Ted.

PS It's always been my philosophy to do it right the first time while you have it all apart and right in front of you than to do it half assed and have to come back, pull it all apart and redo it right the second time.
