Everything spun fine B4 drive flange went in.
Just thought I should prob rule out brakes by removing caliper also.
Maybe throw it in FWD while the lift, watch and listen.

IDK she is gonna get run regardless.

Not sure about twisted splines... the flange wouldnt even start w/o hammer.
But still why would that affect spinning.

Chromo in and out

Did not disassemble passenger knuckle. Seemed fine.

Driver side got all new parts and I used your trick welding the top cone to the knuckle.

I bet it's just brake drag unless you were able to spin things before the R&R

I honestly didnt notice if it spun freely or not before.
Yes welded diffs.

I better check my insurance policy.

RV Ghosts

Anyone able to explain the overall functions of this little control module?
Does it have remote capabilities? No visible antenna. All we have is a hard wired switch to operate it.

At random times the rear 12v electric roll up door goes up by itself. Ive never seen nor heard  it first hand. But it seem to happen more when plugged into the shop. We did find it up once while traveling. But cant confirm if it was down when we departed. Maybe a garage door opener interference?

Planning to call the manufacturer next week.

Anyone have an extra Hawse Fairlead available?

I bought a new synthetic winch rope for my warn and opted not to purchase a new hawse fairlead because I remember having one sitting around the shop.

But as luck would have it I cant find it.
