Playing hookie today to do the diff
So far so good draining now - not one of the lucky schrock guys so doing the whole deal

I still can't understand the design of the brake lines on top - seems stupid
Why didn't anyone tell me this stuff smells like ass lol

Stay tuned for final picture once complete

Sulfur Phosphorous extreme pressure (EP) additives do smell a bit but my well worn dirty socks smell a lot worse. :D

Is that wait time standard? If so, I'm been doing it wrong.

I just wait a couple of mins, just long enough to get the gear oil cans lined up before filling it.

Looks good.

Maybe remove that rear sway bar while you wait. :)

It allows for more articulation from the rear axle.
