    Once I got the tie rods to let go, the rotors just took a few more love taps.

    Just dropped the spindles off for gussets and new bearings/seals.

    Also ordered a Napa CV because my passenger side boot is torn and slinging grease.

    Now that I got it all apart and can put eye balls on everything, I call BS on NTB always trying to sell me an inner tie rod job. I don't see how one could even tell with the skid plates on and everything assembled. I don't know if I'll even bother replacing em until I buy some Solo UCAs. I'll probably go ahead and do the LBJs though.

    Vapes aren't all bad. For some of us, it's the only way we could quit smoking cigs.

    Although, I use tobacco flavor, not fruity shit cause I'm heterosexual.

    just gotta add; don't forget to clock them before pressing them in. Solid poly bushings wont matter but OEM or aftermarket copies have an intended orientation. Mine are not clocked correctly, and although it hasn't caused me any problems (yet), it's not right, and if/when they fail prematurely, I won't wonder why. Learned about the orientation thing AFTER
    i pressed them in when I was lookin up torq. specs. :facepalm:

    My dude carries quite a bit of Mr. E. he stopped carrying a few i really liked like apples to oranges and pluto. We'd mix 1/2 jade and 1/2 Pluto and call it judo. Good shit. I'll see if he has any of that Strudel. When I come in him and his wife don't even ask if I wanna see the new flavors.

    IDK since I don't have an 05 but that fill plug on the diff needs to be cleaned out.

    You can make a lot of improvement just by hitting the plastic ring with PB Silicone spray. They zip right on up after, if you can keep the belt off the sliding surface long enough for the silicone spray to dry.
