What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

Lots to do on the E body today. Putting the rear end back together after replacing the axle seals, new brake shoes (since gear oil from the worn out axle seals was all over the brakes), pressing on new U joints, new brake line, and if there's time, I'll start tearing into the transmission for a rebuild. Who am I kidding, I work so slowly that I'll be lucky to finish two of those items...

I found a gear tooth inside the axle housing, but the differential didn't seem to be having any issues. I'm just wondering how/why this happened.

maybe someone grenaded something prior to you buying the car. It just didn’t get cleaned out 100%
