Has anyone tackled a rebuild of an 8.8 straight axle rear end? How involved? I have access to a fox width rearend with 3.08 gears. It will need 5 lug axles of course. I'd be fine with 3.08s for now, probably have a shop change them to 3.55s down the road.
Is it straight forward work to change the axles, seals, bearings and rebuild the trac-lok?
