Ok some more work has been accomplished that shows visible progress. One rear fender is done. What a pain. I think i have about 4 hours into each fender, between cutting, bending, polishing and riveting. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

Yup they are the best thing my dad ever bought. He scratch built an experimental when I was a kid and still has all the tools for it. Makes life super easy.

No locker but it does have an lsd. Looks like the front diff is the small one. I have my old v6 MT cv's to compare against and they are bigger than the gen 2 ones. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Coming apart nicely! Hope you didn't leave your phone there! We don't want a repeat... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Judging by the rest of the truck, the LSD is probably like new too!

Hey, whichever size the front diff is, at least you'll be able to get cv's easily enough if you need em... Front lockers are unnecessary anyway - they just put you further into trouble where your buddies can't follow... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" />

Have you measured the t-bars yet?
