For right now, just new spider gears. After the new year I may look into getting the rest of it taken care of. Anyone got any tips on getting the center pin all the way out. I messed with it for a few minutes this afternoon, wheels,calipers, rotors removed. Took out the center pin bolt, I got the center pin about half way out and it seems stuck on the gear. I didnt have time to really mess with it because my son had a boyscouts meeting, so first thing in the morning I am going to get that pin and the gears out and everything cleaned up waiting for new parts.On a side note, borrowed my bro in laws lifted OBS 4x4 on 37s to ride in the next couple days, man this thing beats you to death.LOL

He sold the whole truck so you missed out on those door panels. I will get that pin out today.
