Maybe later today I'll get a shot of that gorgeous, freshly painted front diff, but this was after about an 80 mile drive. You can watch it sitting there, not dripping gear oil out of the inside, passenger rear wheel lol

Pics or it didn't happen
And finally some before and after pics of the axle. Sand blasted it, then painted with spray bombs of tractor paint. Need to hit the bottom again just below the diff cover. But it looks immensely better than it did before. You can see the new springs in the last pic too. After driving it quite a bit I measured again and it's within 1/8" between driver and passenger side. Passenger side is now 1/8" lower than the driver side, I can definitely live with that :cool:. A respectable person might have painted that rusty tie rod that's right out front haha.
