First off Happy Thanksgiving to Everyone!!!

Ok, well tonight after I'm done with the family thing, My buddy and I are gonna meet up and swap out my rear end with my new ear end I picked up from Jason Short last weekend (Thanks Bro!) Its a direct bolt in 10 bolt with 3:73 gears, Anyways, its missing a couple studs on the right side, Can I swap out the missing studs off my current axle? Or do I NEED new ones? also can I reuse my universal joint for the time being? and is there any tips/tricks to get this job done nice n easy? Jason said it should only take about an hour or so to swap out.

Thanks guys,
Keith

 

yea you could pull the stud's out one by one or you could remove the whole axle shaft and do it that way if you wanted to.. You can pretty much reuse everything you listed. Only thing's you can't reuse are thing's like seals and gaskets etc. You'll be fine

 

Sounds good, Thanks for the quick reply.

All the info I needed and wanted to hear
