I ended up using Alumiweld rods which melts using just a butane torch. Worked pretty well, I ended up making 10 tabs out of scrap from the grill.Nice, I've been wanting to do a Satoshi style grill like the t4r guys. Can you post the back side and how you went about attaching the steel?

Curious why you need a body lift? Are you planning on bigger tires?Summer project accumulation courtesy of @TRAIL TAILOR. Although I bought the body life a while ago and didn’t get a chance to install. View attachment 2198287
I'd take the rear drive shaft off to see if it'd eliminate the problem. Not getting any drive without center diff lock is indicative of either front or rear spinning free. Unlocked transfer case would happily send all the torque to the path of least resistanceGot to taking the CV axles out today. Removed the spindles, rather than go the full hub flange/ ball joint route. Some play in the DS axle that was making noise, PS still has zero play, after 253,xxx miles. However, I still have not figured out what sounded so awful when I was driving - a hard, speed based thumping when rolling (that shook the truck), and grinding when center diff NOT locked - also no drive then. I assumed the CV drive splines were stripped, but the machining on them is still pristine. Both hub flanges are pristine, and both inner diff splines are pristine. I ran out of time, so I was not able to take the boots off, but both inner boots and one out boot were cracked. I searched for a bit but cannot find anything else like this on MUD. Diff oil came out clean - changed this past spring. Hoping it's not the diff gears... any suggestions?
I'll take a look at that tomorrow. All the ugly noises were coming from the front, and I already had the noisy CV up there, so the assumption was it just went bye-bye.I'd take the rear drive shaft off to see if it'd eliminate the problem.

sure sounds like the same symptoms guys experience when there’s an issue with the c clips on the shafts at the drive flanges....did that all look tight during tear down?I'll take a look at that tomorrow.
