Well! Drove it out and down the driveway a few times tonight! All back together.. gonna take it for a few short trips down the road tomorrow to see how it goes!
Needed a new 3rd member for a 9" rear end.. i found inside lots of metal chunks about pee size.. and looootttts of metal shavings! New axle bearings too! No more leaks! Also some 3.10 gears too... should be more road worthy instead of them HUGE ones that were in there..

Woo!   :thumbs:

Get some 2 1/2 ton military axles.  Pretty sure you won't be able to grind them apart...  :lol:

Well its still broke.. the plan is to get another turd member and toss in a mini spool and toss in some new (non-stock) gears, i guess thats the way to go from what im hearing.. fingers crossed!!  :(
