Tonight i knocked out the press work and got the axles installed.
Shafts, IFS vs T100. 28.5 vs 32. The math makes the axle WMS 58 and 65 relative, i guess.

Since you all know my motto is, Anything worth doing once is worth doing five times....
Of course i had to rip the rear axle out again. Trying to not be a slob with the silicone cost me a do over. For some reason the Elocker diff has like a dowel pin relief at six o'clock. Well the ring gear relief on the axle is right there too. Not enough glue. So i cleaned shyt up and filled those stupid holes with glue. Should be GTG. meow.

Today i also dealt with fitting the brake hard lines. I built ebrake cable extentions. Installed twin stick.

I also went back and measured the gap between the axle shafts when installed, its 1.5".
So id say that makes an IFS axle 59"(28.5+28.5+1.5+.5)
T100@66" (32+32+1.5+.5)
Mind you i didn't actually measure drum thickness, im assuming .25" each thus .5 in equations.
 
Okay so pretty sure this is the last time i had to remove the axle. Lol.
Did lower shock mounts. I decided to use a stud mount again. Toying with the idea of out boarding the rear shocks in the future. Realistically probably not though, as im planning on moving my Bils to the rear and going resi up front.

Worked tonight, spun my wheels for like an hour looking for a wrench.... Which i still didn't find. :****ingpissed:
I did manage to get all the rest of the little bs done on the rear.
I just need to do the brakes and button that end up.

Alrighty then.
Everything is ready for alignment check Saturday morning.
Filled rear diff got about 2.5+qt in there.
I went ahead and installed the front locker motor and guard along with tying the wires down.
