I've checked the axles and they are fine. There is quite a bit of lash in the diff, but that is a different issue and will wait for resolution later on. Cheers!! Jim - jacked up Midget in Dodge City

I'm in Overland Park which is right next to Vic Brit, in fact took the wrong exit last night and drove by it on accident on the way to Okie Joe's BBQ. Anyhow, I'm sure I'll get out early, if you like
