Smile 96 Ram rebuild. Many pics.

Back in January I was hit by another truck and ran into a ditch, braking the front axle. Me and my dad finally got a new axle, rebuilt it, and threw it on the truck. The insurance company totaled the truck and we bought it back for $300. We bought the new axle for $300 from a junkyard and now it's back to life! So here are the pic's.

Yeah it was a bitch trying to get those cam-bolts out. It would have been a LOT easy-er if we didn't have to rebuild the axle.

It would be nice to have a lift, but with sturdy jack-stands it went purty good. That's the stock diff cover I just painted it silver lol.
