    Dealt with junkyards all day today..... Not happy at all really. I went to Birmingham Auto Parts off 210, they supposedly had a 4.10 8.8 with LSD for $150, went there and they apparently were wrong. They then directed me to Late Model Auto Salvage off 10st in KCMO.... Dont like that area. Well they matched the price. They then proceeded to bring me an 8.8 with a broken axle shaft and no brakes... No way I was taking that. So I waited an hour and a half for them to pull another one from an explorer and took it home. $150. STarted messing with it and it is an LSD 3.73 axle. I dont eben wanna mess with it anymore at this point. So im working on sending d30 4.10's back and getting 4.56's and a set for the 8.8 as well. If anyone wants the 4.10's Ill sell them for what I bought them for if I havent returned them already ($145) USA Gears NIB

          Plumb up as in make them more vertical than angled? I messed with the idea a bit when putting tabs on but the easiest way was the way I did it. I plan on synthetic line and aluminum fairlead soon so I will mess with it more then
