Hey Guys,
So today I got the final rear axel painted Black and ready to go back on the truck. Also if any one want's to know I am using raptor epoxy primer (Gray) and a car flat black paint for the top coat.

Looking good! Makes me consider adding air lockers, or, maybe Detroits to the rear axles at least. I have to overhaul mine anyways.

Your doing a great job ! I also like using that "Raptor" gray primer paint. It is extremely strong stuff.

I don't know if you got this part sorted out yet, but the 74416 is for use with super singles. Nice work.

Final finished all the little parts on the air lockers and been using them in the mud. Best upgrade I have ever done to my m35a2.

The lockers where the best investment ever, for this truck. It's like night and day now with them. I had to use them just this Saturday in the snow. I got the truck suck a few times this weekend in about knee deep snow. But as soon a flip the switch to lock the rear lockers, I could not get the truck stuck any more in the snow. But one big thing you need to know with lockers, is when you lock the front locker you can not steer any more the truck will only go straight and if you try to steer you will brake you arms off. But over all it made the truck like a tank now. The truck should had these from day number one. Snice I installed the lockers I have not used the winch any more in the mud. But I haven been in really deep mud yet. Like before Installed the lockers I have had the truck up to the top of the seats in mud.

Can't turn because of no power steering? I have lockers in all 3 axles and turns perfect at all speeds with all 3 locked. Just curious. I don't have air lockers but wish I would have put them in! Maybe next time.

I have a few video on you tube with lockers engaged. They are on this site somewhere as well i think.
