maybe it's just me, but I've had a hard time finding good trustable information on how to service or rebuild a rearend. There's lots of vague or general information on certain components, particularly axles, but no complete "How-To" threads.
For a no0b like me, it's been tricky. I've had to ask alot of questions and piece together alot of bits of information and I thought I would start a Build Thread on a complete "How-To" for this knowledge base.
This story started a couple years ago when I noticed alot of Posi slip in my 8.5 10bolt at the drag strip when doing a burnout. I've continue to beat on it since, and it has progressively gotten worse. I am now at the stage where I plan to dig into this thing over the summer.
I hope to do all the work myself. I work very slowly, so hopefully you guys will be able to follow this as it goes along.
cheers,
khan
