[QUOTE="Chris S, post: 497299, member: 5757"] Got it to this point in January of this year. At that time I had pretty well applied all the parts I had bought and stock piled so it was time to spend some more $. Made the decision to sell my current rig to "hopefully" free up enough capital to get this thing finished. I put it online in late February and sold it in less than a week on Craigslist. After getting the cash in hand I ordered a full hydro steering kit from trail gear. While waiting on it I still needed a locker for the front so I put a wanted ad up on here and got a lead on a Yukon Grizzly locker which lead to buying his chromoly axles he was running with it as well. Wasn't really planning on the axles but he put what I felt was a good price on them so why not I guess. After buying the axles I ended up ordering drive flanges from east coast gear since my 30spline hubs would no longer work and also ordered a Yukon super joint for one of the axles as one of the longfields he was running in them was spent from a missing zerk fitting in one of the caps which meant no grease. I pulled the axle back out from under the truck and swapped the locker in place of the factor carrier. Also made the hoop for the double ended ram and swapped the steering arms and studs out while having it on the bench. I completed all the welding I had not done on the link brackets and reassembled the axle. Painted it and put it back under the truck. [/QUOTE]
