Dash Fire Duster Rebuild
So in the month of January thru March we tore down the rear axle and rebuilt it will parts from Dr Diff, including including 3.91 gears, bearings, and Sire Grip Clutches. The shop isn’t heated so the cold hindered progress. Those pics are not very exciting, mostly just wear patterns which we got pretty close on. The main thing here was the pinion nut was now not just finger tight and the gears were no longer chipped, and the clutches no longer shattered. Additionally the rear brakes were gone thru and replaced, and the new Espo plus 2 inch leaf springs were installed. Also replaced transmission crossmember and mount from 73 style spool to 72 style block which was part of correcting the driveline angles. Had a lot of vibrations and clunks before so those should be resolved.
