well, i'm back from the honeymoon and ready to get busy on the power giant. one problem i have run into is that someone has welded the square headed differential plug to the housing! there are two plugs, one is a recessed type(which partly shattered when i tried to take it out) and the square headed one( which is the problem) any ideas?? next is the task of finding bolts for my steering link that bolts to the axle. they've all sheared off and are going to be fun to take out. i plan on using an easy out, then cleaning up the threads with a tap, however i've been told i need studs, NOT just bolts any ideas?? i know the originals have fine threads on one side and course on the other. could i use a bolt with a lock nut?? to ensure there is no movement? you know, just like whatever the threads are on the axle housing. i want to make sure there is NO movement! i dont want to die! thanks all. Jason
