Judging by the ground down lower bolt heads I would guess that this is not a major worry of yours!
Why would one remove a diff cover? Oh yeah, to weld the diff. Ah, once and you're done. :)
So what u-bolt did you use Brian? Does it come stock on something?
here is what it ended up looking like, i didnt make it back out to my ranch today but should be getting some pics brought back to me tomorrow.
frick-the ubolt measured 5/8"x5"x~13"(i did cut off about 2 inches of the thread on each side once i installed it so you could go shorter), there isnt a part number for the ubolt as they make them custom for you while you wait, i waited for maybe 5 minutes for it to be made,

what every one else said, ill change the fluid when i redo the spring plate and wont do that again for a while
i had it made at heitman in houston, its the place that frick suggested on the east side of down town, but just go to the nearest truck stop with a repair shop and they will make custom ubolts 24 hours a day
that is really the best place to get all u-bolts made, they are a higher grade than the stock replacement ones. When I needed new u-bolts in CO the local 4wd shop didn't have them so that's what I did, it ended up to cost half as much too.
rebuilt my front driveshaft, now i just need the flanges back from the machine shop

wow!
wash it all first - you will be much happier working with semi-clean parts. At least hose it down. I would spray the engine with degreaser and hose off.
looks the same to me? :flipoff2:Quote:
