Thank you Brick for the pre axle dump exhaust parts!

Changed the oil and Changed the Diff fluid today. The ring on the 13 bolt is massive!

I should probably know this and can go look but did you have to remove the cover? Assuming all looked good during the change?
 
Do you guys have regulations on required signs? I know here in Illinois or Missouri that is not a regulation sign so I would completely ignore it.

In Colorado, any PRIVATE business that posts a sign not allowing firearms is well within their legal rights not to allow them in their business in this state. It is illegal for a public place to do the same though. Any PRIVATE business that doesn't welcome law-abiding citizens to carry guns, I tend not to do business with. If they don't want defense against criminals, that's their legal choice. Regardless, I'd much rather support a business that allows the open or concealed carry of firearms. If a legal CCW holder visually sees the sign and is carrying at the time, it is illegal for them to enter the building while still carrying.

How many miles on those axles? They look brand new.

I always do on the first change, and then alternate there after. I change it out after every run with a lot of water, like Drummond or a hard run like Windrock.

600. I’ve always swapped the fluid 500-600 miles on a new set. Might be overkill, but for what I’ve invested into them it’s cheap insurance and I can check everything over to make sure it’s good.

Same here. Gear oil and a small amount of time is well worth the money/time invested for maintenance.
 
Good old RTV. I didn’t line it up right in the bottom of the front and had to yank it and redo.

Get yourself a couple longer bolts the same size as the cover bolts and cut the heads off. Use as guide pins.

It wasn’t that. I didn’t have the RTV going center line of bolt to bolt in that one spot. Total user error.

What kind of fluid do you use. I heard a rumor that you shouldn’t use synthetic. I have a hard time finding conventional oil. Have you heard the same? I think it was hard on the seals on the arb.
