Thanks Boy's. Just having coffee, hanging a plate on Pumpkin and head for Bill's for the axel installation. Sun is out and the roads are almost dry.

Looks REALLY good Bryan....

Thanks Bud.

Axels were a breeze.

Bill and I knocked it off pretty quick. Sun is out and the roads are dry, taking Pumpkin to the hockey game to night with us.

Start posting pic's a bit later after were back from the game. It will be Deadfrog time then.

Here's the last pic's of the ABL mod. Thanks to Tom from ESS for all his help on this portion of the build.

Now the axel installation pic's. Thanks to Frank from DSS and Bill for all his help on Pumpkin this winter.

Just one little mod today.

Put the SS back on the grill.

Bro, is it me, or are the splines on the end of that factory axle a little uhm... twisted... it may be an optical illusion, but it sure looks like the inner surface is twisting around where the outer end is still straight...

Was I wrong about the beefiness of those bad boys from DSS... That is a chunk of Iron right there...
