Lockouts will be in sometime next week...Spent the evening tearing the front axle all apart.Its a bare axle housing now.I cleaned all the internals and threw away the old 3:73s in the front.The ball joints are bad in the knuckles so they will have to be replaced on one side.Waiting on a few seals,lockouts and the new ring gear and the axle will be done.Hoping to test fit the body on frame this weekend to let the spings settle in abit.Stay tuned!
