Thanks it will be slow but I’m pumped to be able to do everything myself this time. No outsourcing fab work or welding, just the drive shaft I think.


What’s everyone think about rear yokes? Should I do a 1410 yoke on the new axle like I did in my Tahoe or keep the 1350? I need a better driveshaft either way so I’ll have the option to reyoke it.

It will be slow but oh that clutch dump with the rear end locked and some 35”s with be sweeeeetttttt!


I guess for $50 I’ll just get the 1410 yoke it’s the only bigger option I see, sorry @arthursc2 no 1450 available.

H2 axle arrived today, besides having surface rust it looks great! No signs of damage or leaks anywhere and it actually came with full brakes and a sway bar. I have the 6lug to 8 lug adapters on the way for the front so I can bolt those wheels and tires on and hopefully this weekend I'll go to a buddies and use his plasma cutter to cut all these link brackets off. As soon as the adapter brackets come in I'm gonna test fit a 2020+ 4 piston caliper on the front, I have a spare one lying around and would love to be able to upgrade to those eventually.

Those rotors look like they have plenty of life left in them.

Every single H2 axle I have bought to this point in my life, looks basically like that. Its like they sit in the yard for 5yrs before sale

Pop the cover and make sure water didn't get in there and make rust of the gears/bearings
