Just in from the first test drive! New axles, brake pads, Actibrake, Hayes Genisis controller. Sorry it took so long to get it done, working on it when I got a little time different weekends. I hired the controller put in my truck, couldn't squeeze under the steering wheel to see which wire to pull on.
Will take some adjusting on the controller, but seems it will stop my truck faster with the 31' on it than the truck will stop by itself alone.
New axles raised the machine a little more than 2 inches.
Anybody looking at changing axles, I found soaking the nuts beforehand with a rust breaker worked amazingly, and a floor jack helps you get that last half inch up on the far end of the axle. Shocks had to go on before raising the axle. Really a simple straightforward job.
Woohoo, the Silver Dragon has moved off that spot in the lawn!
