Thought I'd give everyone local first shot at my rubicon axles....

Both front and rear hub to hub including calipers. They are built with 5.38 gears and factory lockers. The front has teraflex sleeves and gussets, and both have riddler diff covers. The rear has ten factory chromoly axles and the front has stock shafts along with one superior chromoly extra. It will have new ball joints and a new tie rod on it as well. They have 25000 miles on them.

If you are interested pm me.

I guess they push in, but simple to take out. I'll take a pic of a cap in the morning

One question though, did you have to grind away any of the powdercoat/paint to expose metal to get a good ground?
I did grind the original paint at 1st but when I did the new paint to match I didn't and it still works perfect.

Goal tomorrow is to pull the key mechanism out and spray that too. I never use it since I have keyless entry and I want it all to match

Thats awesome. Use plenty of pb blaster on all your joint and bolts the night before makes removal easier.
Its a good kit enjoy.
