Elementary CGI stuff Watson.

I ended up replacing the whole front axle assembly, and yes Mr. Insurance
Man it had 3.92s from the factory. I have received the ring & pinion for
the rear but on the advice of my buddy with the drivetrain shop did not
order an install kit just a new crush sleeve and nut...well turns out the
Chrysler 9.25 uses a different diameter pinion shim than anything he had so
I ended up ordering an install kit anyway. Was supposed to get finished up
last weekend but being as I am a buddy and not a regular paying customer ( I
guess beer and Mickey Dees doesn't count as pay ) I got pushed back...hope
to get to it on Sunday as Saturday me and him are going to an auction to buy
stuff for the garage. Good thing I got my Jeep on the road.

I choose not to lock it at this time but when I do it will be with a
No-Slip.

By the way I have one of your radio units in my kitchen. Send me a mailing
address and I will have Carolyn get it out to you...that only took me three
months to ask for.

Also, I purchased a 15 foot camper to pull behind the Dak and Jeep so when
we go to events we don't have to get a motel room ( Carolyn is a BAD tent
camper ). It also can be used when someone might stop by for a couple of
days ( or more ) of off-roading.
