Figured I better post some pics. Been doing a few things on the wifes list, tonight I was hanging wood blinds. Not a whole lot of progress on the 45, but I am still moving ahead.

Finished up the axle rebuild. I was planning on putting the calipers back on, but having a tough time getting the brake pad pins out. I'm going to bring them into work tomorrow and die grind off the ends and try to punch them out. Using all metric Stainless steel hardware from now on .

Also got my BF 33 x 9.5 mounted today, slight problem. Tire guy said 3 of the 4 rims were bent They weren't out of round, the mounting surface and the rim itself weren't parralel to each other. 2 weren't that bad, but noticeable on the balance. 1 was enough, had to add quite a bit of weight on the rim. He said it might not be noticable, but I think I might have to round up a new/used set of rims. If I find another decent 3 I will sandblast those and powdercoat them with the same stuff. So if anyone has 3 decent stock welded rims...........
