Well, I think I’m going to open fire on this thing.

I got the new vent fitting in today, but it’s too big. The one that “came” with the truck was too small and was just sitting in the hole and not threaded in at all. Either way, the front differential isn’t exactly leak tight and now the prop shaft seal sprung a leak.

I have no idea what year model jalopy this diff came from, but I don’t think it’s original and I’m done with it. Going to hit a junkyard and look for another one. Guess I’ll get a 3.42 unless I can get a good deal on a matching 3.73 front and rear set.

What’s the worse that could happen, lol.
