    Rear differential need to be rebuilt

    Stay away from lockers if you're worried about driving in the ice. a posi would be better as the engagement isn't as sudden. It's a slower engagement so it might be better for icy roads. Less likely to end up in the ditch

    Gah I need help with wheels and tires...

    If you do change wheels, make sure you have at least 4 inches of back space, otherwise you may run into contact issues with the control arms. At least I did.

    Need to replace my steering box.

    Regular ATF will be just fine. you can pick up a filter from any autoparts store. All that is needed to install it is just cut the return line somewhere where there is plenty of space, and put the filter in-line.

    4x4 issue

    Is your front drive shaft turning when you engage the 4wd? I would say to start there.

    Hub or CV Axle?

    I had a similar issue with mine, but it was after I replaced my pads and rotors. Ended up being the backing plate rubbing on the rotor

    OBS to NBS Master Cylinder Upgrade REPORT

    Rich, good to see you still playing with your 'hoe. I never saw the swap done, glad to hear it works well. I'm gonna consider the swap if I don't sell the truck. Got a baby on the way and it's just not baby friendly.
