1970 3/4 ton first build

Hi all, I had originally posted on a different category asking for help with ID'ing my axles, and any other advice. Here are pics of my project. It is my first 4x4 so any advice would be appreciated.

It is a 1970 with what turns out to be a Dana 44, 4 spd, and a little massaging. I posted pics so that any of you more experienced guys out there can see what I have, what I'm doing, and perhaps comment on it so I can go in the right direction. This is my first 4x4 so any help is appreciated.

My original post has a lot more info so I won't type it here. Hope to hear some great tips.

Thanks

J

Re: 1970 3/4 ton first build

Ok, you're all probably going to want to beat me severely about the head for this one, or at least keep me from working with power tools. I uploaded my pics, they are in my gallery and albums, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how in the world to post them on the thread. Anyone care to hook a brother up?

I guess I'm not too computer savvy.

Apologies
