Is there anything I can use to clean up and recondition this top? It has a small hole in it (see pictures) that I can fix no problem, but as far as removing the rust and grime what are my options?
Where the balls is the fill plug on the 9 inch?
drivers side of the third member. Uses a 3/8ths ratchet to take out.
No pics yet, but I got the tailgate on and repainted the cover from the old one and put it on the new one.
The body is lookin better than ever, and she is back to running strong.
Plans for tomorrow to get the truck ready for soggy this weekend:
- Replace 205 output seal
- Replace 9" pinion seal
- Fill 9"
- Fill 205 and T18
- Lube up my shafts
- Tear **** up
Why are you lubing your shafts?

I'm hoping I'll be alright with just a new u-joint.
Will it be ok driving in 2wd?
as long as you make sure the tcase is in 2wd and unlock both hubs it should not spin so yes you will be ok
Surprised you didn't notice that when it immediately broke. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that it was driven on a bit after it was broken and so the ears on the axle shafts will be stretched out. I could be wrong but make dead sure that they are okay before just swapping in a u-joint and being done with it.
What can I get the axle shafts out of if I were to go junkyarding?
It makes a lot of clinks and clanks, come to think of it, I do remember it happening, but it was right when we were driving back, and I switched to 2wd for the ride home.Quote:
