working on tackling all the leaks haha. Rear diff cover was weeping. Resealed stopped that and the ring gear and pinion look good no uneven wear or chucks. Then in with some fresh gear oil hate the smell of the stuff haha. It is surprisingly clean under no rust and it looks like it has been coated with oil.

Yeah, that underside looks really clean.

Any pics of the truck?
I'll take a few soon haven't been home much lately. Moving to Virginia soon and trying to get parts together for it so it can either make the trip or go on a trailer.

Truck needs a carb and I have long tubes to put on soon. Either it gets done before the move or when I'm settled in at the new place. I mostly started this to track the build and give me motivation. There is a lot wrong with the truck but it has no rust the paint was scuffed and rattle canned unfortunately. Engine is setup quite nice. Tomorrow hopefully going to tackle the lowering kit for the rear.

Corbeau is an expensive brand of seat. Good score on the truck !
