Oops, missed that part :hmmm:I’m rejoucing in the fact I removed the rear pinion, not the front. I haven’t messed with anything on the front yoke/pinion.

Thank you!Looking good. Good job
I went with 4.88’s & its really nice driving I have a 5th gear. I will update you on the highway drive as I have one on tuesday & will have a proper speedo at that time. Said I was going 90mph in a 65.James glad to see that you got out in woods. Which gear ratio did you go with? And how much do you like it while in the city and on the highway?
They open at 10cst.. we will find out soon enough haha.yea it looks like a brand new seal too..WTF! I would be surprised if they give you any lip on this.
They have offered to fix it, if I bring it all the way back to them. My gear break in is nearly going to be done this week wity all this 30 minutes on, 30 minutes off driving.yea it looks like a brand new seal too..WTF! I would be surprised if they give you any lip on this.
I'm going to see what I can do in terms of that, hoping I can. I won't make them change the gear oil because when they receive the vehicle it will only have 250 miles on it, I want to go the full term and use my own gear oil. I scheduled the repair on Thursday, so that will be happening then!Make them change out your gear oil too since your break in is about done. Order a new u-bolt style yoke and have them install it. They have to pull the yoke anyways and the u-bolt style yoke is stronger.
Jezzz. Hoping this is the last of the surprises!Don't feel alone. When I had my gears done, the shop must not have bothered to take it for a test drive. I picked the jeep up and drove the 30 miles to home. When I got home, both sides of the front axle leaked gear oil profusely, so I had to drive it back to the shop and say WTF! Come to find out, he somehow installed the wrong inner seals in my Dana 30. He did try to make it right by offering to change out the gear oil after break in. Sucked for him since he had to pull everything back apart to change out those seals.
Haha the rear main has been an issue for the past couple miles, pinion seal is super annoying though. Definitely in the long haul tomorrow...I hate when crap like that happens (the seal). Especially right after you get done doing a huge project like this and just want to drive it!
