Everything!
All hardware, etc.
Took a few hours to complete everything.

Just make sure you have a 32mm socket to remove the rear pinion nut. Also make sure you have some muscles. That thing is on there! You can reuse the same nut but if you want to get a new one, it is the same nut that is used on Dana 60's. Lastly....do not forget your loc tite.
The factory nut is torqued to 200lbs. It is recommended to retighten the nut to 150 lbs, as to not destroy the crush sleeve. 150 is plenty.

Default local driveshafts

I had Six States build and INSTALL both driveshafts here in Salt Lake City. They recomended for basic trail use that the 1310' s would be plenty strong. the total with labor was just over $700. They replace the yokes and flanges with standard parts that are easy to get.

Anybody got a part # or a vehicle cross reference of what yokes would fit if I removed the flanges? Then I could have shafts made locally (relatively) cheap.
