I have options and I'm still talking to ORD about their brackets. I gave them the dimensions on the passenger side and we are discussing the possibility of doing some trimming to see if they will fit. Otherwise there are precut tabs and things for link and shock mounts available through DIY4X and others. The main thing is not to over-think it.

Todays progress was just cleaning the gunk off the D60. I think the driver side axle bearing and seal is wore out. Seems a bit too loose in there. Which would explain the heavy dirt/oil build up on that side.

A buddy of mine from the navy might be spending some time with me. He's a mechanic and I might have him take a look at the axles and do some other work I have been putting off. Its a rare thing for me to have company in my garage, although my girlfriend says I look hot being all mechanicky and stuff out there.
