Well I started the break down of the good 14 bolt. It appears I will be taking the entire axle down. Then new bearings through out. Put the diff back in and install the disc brake setup. While everything is apart I will trim the housing and take the lip off and maybe a little extra.
I have a new ring and pinion, wheel bearings and u-joints for the Dana 60. Should be here by Tuesday. I plan on that getting started late next week.
Still have to figure out which high steer arms to go with. Any suggestions?
Pics to follow soon

Thanks Andrew...I am using one of the BTF 14 bolt covers. That thing appears to be able to withstand bullet impacts.

UPS has just dropped off another box...Randys Ring and Pinion is great. Front axle parts and the 14 bolt parts arrived in 2 days.
Got to love the the fact they have a warehouse in Tenn.
Now I guess I have work to do  [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Yeah I am going with the sky steering arms aswell.. I really dig them. They are a pretty good price for what you are getting as well.

I saw this thread pop back to the front spontaneously like there was a glitch in the matrix.
Still makes me feel like I work really slowly though since I know that Merc started his stuff long after I did.
