It is okay if you make a new post for the selling items and don't forget to say where you live. And post up in the classified section on this site. And post up on www.craigslist.org and www.ebay.com

You just divide 43 by 14. And your answer was right. 3.071. If you haven't double and triple check the tooth count. Some rings will have the ratio stamped on the side.

Hey

I,ve been busy with schhol and next week i have my finials but i still have some good news and new things i've done.

Frist i sandblasted my dana 44 and Am looking for 3.50 or 4.10 gears for it. Not much change on the truck but i am getting little ponds in my back sett. but i think i can fix that.

NOW some bad and awesome news

OK frist the bad news. will my dakote build will be slowed down for a week or more because my dad hasn't got a paycheck in 4 week. BUt chrismas was good i got a **** load of tools and stuff. .

but i think my dad and his job was for the good because now he went to go talk with his old boss and they got talking and now they are working on opening a tire and garage shop over in effort,pa. ITs the coolest place i have seen. If it all works out i will get pics of the place. theres and big garage door in the back of the building and there will be two big lifts in there and then you go throw a little garage door from there and you can but little lifts for changing tires but i will take pics later. but my dad said to me that i can do the sas swap on my dakota there so i don't have to use the ground.. SO i should have a update soon but time should tell.
heres somepicture of the axles.

update coming this afternoon just have to upload pictures


well summer is coming here in the poconos. so i started working on m truck again,

i ended up selling my axles for other parts on this truck. right now its raining outside. not really lol. rains crap. i ended up removing the bed and sand blasting the frame this week end. wow talk abot rust. but wasn't to bad. but if you own and dakota check your frame on the.


left frame rail where the front of the rear leaf monut is ///by the fuel tank.

check inside the frame and outside. also check arond the trailer hatch. also check the back cross member. and the one arond the fuel tank. those were my main place that worried me. but now my frame looks brand new.

pictures in a little.

i almost am sad i sold my axles crazy4x4rt made it look easy,,,,,, may have to buy another set when my truck is running and driving
