??? Not sure. Not that many... maybe 2 - 3 k I think the issue was from the axle shaft coming out, and that put an unusual load on the locker??? I know, I know I should get a "real" locker, but a friend that has access to a great junkyard that gets wrecks off 95 is looking for new axles for me so I maybe upgrading soon. But I still need to fix this one cause who knows how long it will be.

Big thanks to Paul for helping me with the locker this morning. As I was under there this morning I found another issue. It seems I broke the mount for the passenger side lower control arm.

Now I need to find someone to weld on a new bracket or as Paul suggested get a D30 with 3.73 gears and swap it.

The swap is a easy fix but will happen again if you dont get stronger mounts and control arm skids. I one of the off road web sites sell them as a set.

Went to drive the Jeep over to have the Brackets welded and the locker is still messed up. I guess I will have to order a new one. Not real suprised since Paul and I could not get it within spec. Paul, if you have another couple of hours to help... I could use it. Probably be a couple of weeks till I can order it.
