well, I have no 4wheel drive! I have atleast one grenaded hub and a bad u-joint on the same side, I'm not really sure what to do. I can wiggle the axle as it goes into the axle tube. Bad axle bearing? how hard are dana 44's to rebuild? If I'm going to rebuild the front end, I might as well do the rear and I want steaper gears. I've located a set of axles out of a 70 blazer( he's converting to 2wd) I'm not sure of the ratio, how do I check? the front is disk brakes on his, so at least that won't be a problem. I'm hoping his is a 3.73 so I can just rebuild his and swap it over. were do I find parts? thanks guys in a pickle...
