Thinking
I've got 109 (now 110) posts, so I'm getting there... lol
But, since I'm posting, next bit with the truck is I've just noticed one of the rear axle seals has started to weep a bit
but looking online I thought about maybe getting one of the repair bearings that has everything in one piece to make things easier but they come in 2 different ID's... Doh
how do I know what size I will have ?
Looking on RockAuto, the axle shafts seem to be either 1.62 or 1.705... Hmm
Since it's my daily driver, I don't really want it torn apart whilst I wait for parts but then again I don't really want to be ordering extra parts just to make sure I get the correct size

1969 Impala Sport Coupe 350/350, Black on Black (too big of a car for a new 15 year old driver)

1976 Camaro 400 4 speed Muncie (ended up being a barely streetable daily driver) (diaphragm clutches suck)
