Got it put together enough for a shakedown run at the last minute. Definetly have some things to work out.

Traction bars - Need them front and rear. Any suggestions. Looking at typical style with bushings on axle end and a Heim on a shackle mount off the crossmember. Had so much wrap in the rear the I blew apart two u-bolt straps on the rear yoke, dinged up the d-shaft a little, and blew the caps on the u-joint.

OX Locker front - FOR SALE - Didn't seem to want to engage. I think it is because of the tight bends in the cable. Probably sell the OX and put an Aussie or similiar in the front.

NV3550 - Supposedly rebuilt. Has some noise, sounds like in the front bearing which I think it typical of early years of the tranny. Also occasionally popped out of 3rd when letting off gas. Going to replace the synchros in my AX-15 and put it back in instead. NV3550 will be FOR SALE.

Stak - Mount is sitting on bench and didn't get installed so with about a max of a half inch clearance from tub, it was hitting tub in rough terrain.

TSLs & H1 - Loved them, I would like change the backspacing on them by about 2 inchs for looks and stability.

Gearing - with the stak 4.3:1 offroad gear was very nice. No complaints off road. On road it was pretty weak when trying to turn the 38s going up hills, but it's not drivin on the road much anyway.
