Alright need some advice... technically there is zero rush to get the axles installed seeing as my current setup works fine. I have an issue where I tend to rush things and I really don't want to do that with this build seeing as it will be in the jeep for as long as I own it. So below is my plan, let me know if there is anything I should add to the list, I don't mind spending money on good parts... my wallet isn't a bottomless pit but I do have money set aside for this jeep.
Ford 8.8 out of a '98 explorer (not sure if it's LSD or not yet, has 4.10s)
MOORE hardware (purchased)
Splicer adaptor (purchased
CV Driveshaft from Tom Woods Driveshaft, with this I plan on doing a SYE
New brake pads, lines ect
POR 15?
Now stuff I'm not sure about:
Should I just replace the rotors/calipers? they seem to be in good shape but for $200 is it worth just getting new
I do not plan on touching any internals other than changing fluid and adding a SOLID dif cover. Should I be changing anything?
Finally should I just wait till summer when it's warmer out to do this or struggle in the cold? I do have a garage but its a little crowded with the jeep and misc parts and no heat
Any help is appreciated!!!! thanks!
On another note I need a bigger garage.....
