    I am glad I took the truck to professionals for the rear diff. I eyeballed the backlash and set it to 0.001, spec is 0.006 - 0.007. Now I feel much better about driving it. Next step is the generator controller, new longer drive shaft, and then all things steering. Current pic from the front...

    Help with mystery wire identification

    The cluster may be the issue. The lights on the cluster are the troubleshooting indicator of the system. When the left (right) turn indicator on the cluster stays on solid there is a bulb out on the left (right) side.
