These rear differentials are very tough. What you showed is pretty much the norm on a 40-year-old truck. In the past I would service the fluids and run it a while and service it again. I never seen much of an issue after that. That locker is a very noisy locker and unloads the no spin at the...

Why are the seatbelts still attached. Go under with a propane torch and heat the nuts. Have an assistant hit them bolts with the impact and remove them. I see pictures here of cab interiors repainted and the seat belts all taped up. Hey not my truck but wanted to mention it. It looks great. A...
