Thanks, ya, the more I think about that pinion bearing I should have cleaned all that rust off the pinion first with wire wheel, sandpaper, brake clean, and compressed air before trying to remove. I can't imagine trying to do this on the vehicle......
Good video brother
Wow this guy kicks assss
I appreciate this video man, thank ya
Awesome video! Where are you located? Do you do work for others? I’m interested in having you rebuild a Dana 80. Thanks.
Good morning. Great video! Question. How is the Power-Lok doing with the new clutch orientation? Any issues? Thanks.

Good day, the diff is defiantly tighter, sometimes I can detect a slight bit of chatter during a slow turn, may need a little more posi additive, but all in all verry happy with the rebuild!

Sounds good. I just stacked mine yesterday the same way you did yours. Figured I'd ask while it's still on the bench. Have a good one.

@@mattritz5825 That is so COOL! did you find yours arranged like the way I found mine? It makes no sense for them to arrange the clutch discs that way?

@@BretMech Yes, mine was arranged exactly as yours was. I can't make it make sense either. Lol. So many wasted surfaces that way.
