changed the oil, decided I need to rebuild the back half of the rear driveshaft, replaced the left upper tie rod at the pitman arm, and bought a couple of hub seals so I can rebuild the right side axle.. :rant

rebuilt the right side knuckle..
axle joint was destroyed, needle bearing in the hub exploded, wiped out the stub, wear-ever seal, and unit bearing... took 4 hours to convince it to come apart..

In the past two weeks I changed the sway bar bushings, the starter, the rear ujoint, turbo compressor housing, injectors, glow plugs and wiring harness for the glow plugs and injectors... Woo glad that's all done!

this weekend, I replaced, the rear brake pads, emergency brake pads, rotors, oil bath seals on axles, and brake backing plates. I still have to adjust the emergency brakes because they don't "hold" the vehicle when engaged. When up on the jack, I had them tightened enough to stop the wheel from spinning when engaged, but take off the jack, and it don't stick. Project for next weekend. any tips appreciated... roadie821 at gmail dot com.
