DD is fixed, so the b2 is getting some attention.

Went and got front rotors and pads, to only find out I ordered the wrong upper ball joints. So I had to stop and order new ones. Almost have the front done.
 
Looks good. You have the hardest part done. It's all down hill now.
 
Monday I will be swapping the leaf spring bushings and hopefully get the rear perches welding on and done. Still need to get rotors and pads for the rear.

Ball joints wont be in until Tuesday so I might be able to install them after work that night and get the front on. If not they will be going on Thursday.
 
When you get that done, we'll have to go wheeling together.
 
It's done?

The rear, only thing i have to do is run the brake lines and bleed them. The balljoints came in and will be put on tonight when i get off at 930pm. So it will be on all 4's tonight.
 
Well didn't get the front together.

Got the shaft and spindles on, go and try to install the bearings and seals in the rotor and then realized that the morons at advance gave me the wrong f'ing rotor, and to top it off I lost my receipt.

Going in the morning to try and get the right rotor.

Still need to por the rear and frame and get the rear shaft. and do a once over on all nuts and bolts.

Any idea on the rear shaft, preferably a junkyard unit that will simple bolt up to the 8.8 and 1354M. Don't real want to buy a custom unit because that's big $$$...

Any comments?
 
A B2 Shaft with a Explorer Flange on the back of it ?!?!?


I guess that might work, if the u-joints are the same.

Kinda a pain in the ass.

Also positioned my new winch plate.

I cut the back curve to fit perfectly between the frame rails and cut the excess on the sides, still need to hit the edges with a sanding disc and repaint.
