Wow that thing guzzles when you're on the loud pedal. Who cares about gas mileage when you're grinning from ear to ear.

You sound like you have my kinda luck bud! Lol

Hey while your in there might as well upgrade! Did they change the design of the half shafts in 05/06? I didn't know that. Was the fix a shaft that was thicker in diameter on one side compared to the other? I know in the 5th gens they are.

Yes sir, if I didn't have bud luck I wouldn't have any at all.The 05/06 have a similar design but the shaft itself is thicker. Bought a used diff and will be checking out the blacklash this weekend. New drive shaft shipped from Geforce today. Also purchased some bushings from white for the diff, control arms, and cross member. Will post pics later.

Well a lot has taken place which held up my build some. Got married switched jobs and blah blah blah. Well we are finally back at it. My awesome engine builder has notched the block, drilled and tapped the DOD, and chamfered the lower parts of the cylinders to avoid pistons from scuffing.
