<font color="green">[4]<font face="Comic Sans MS">Hey Lance, that brings up another security thought you may not be aware of. The military secures their vehicles by welding a chain somewhere in the cab and locking it around the steering column. Check with Alex and make sure that there is a chain on it. You can pack your own padlock along to secure it. Never know when you might want to patronize a food establishment and want to secure the new toy. OOf, I just thought of one more important issue. Did we concur that the truck has a sprag transfer case? If in fact it does have that case, taking off the front flanges would be useless unless you remove the front driveshaft. Confirm which case it has when you talk to Alex. Removing that front driveshaft is still much easier that the interaxle shaft, a bunch easier!</font id="Comic Sans MS">[/4]</font id="green">
