And it's all done and installed. Damn that front diff was a giant PITA! But got it in finally with enough wiggling. Also installed a shiny new skid plate for the locker along with the harness from low range off road. I'm not super impressed with how the switch fits but I guess I can epoxy it in place if it needs. Now to test it all on the trails....

Forgot to add that I went ahead and got the ECGS bushing upgrade and replaced all the seals of course. I didn't like the tool supplied that is shown in the videos to remove the needle bearing and instead used a slide hammer to remove the old bearing. It was stupid simple and no need to shove a part into the diff and prevent things from getting into the diff or worse, breaking the needle bearing apart and having the rollers drop in. Highly recommended. :cheers:
