Got out and found a rear axle poping and both rear bearings shot so I did a little maintenance.

Thanks guys, as for specs I usually leave that out because with each year it seems the specs vary but the job is close to the same so I try to make the videos more universal.

Nice vid! Awesome for you to make these kind of vids to help people out- I like seeing that. The only thing I do different is add some vasoline to the rear diff axle seal when inserting the axle. Seems to help it seal better and last a little longer.

I didn't think about Vaseline, I normally just put a little gear oil on it. I didn't show that in the vid though.

brother, its best just to change out the seals every time! not very expensive and easy to do with alot of peace of mind if you ask me.
