    Battery box/ tray repair

    ok easy enough, so i can just get a welder hereto cut and weld I guess the hole forms because of the acid of the battery? any material that should be put in the battery box to avoid the acid from messing around? thanks a lot

    Battery box/ tray repair

    Hi Guys, My battery box is having a hole in the battery-box - nothing major - is it possible to fix it in a simple way in your opinion or need to change it with one of the YRM pieces? Thanks! Simone

    Leaking from differential housing + transfer case (6x6)

    rear flanges rarely wear has yours --> by this means that mine is good and I can leave it or that rarely a flange has weared off like mine hence I gotta change it? :)

    Leaking from differential housing + transfer case (6x6)

    mehn that was fast! 1) you think I should replace the rear flange given the condition of mine? 2) I must have misunderstood the bearings then - anyway, worth replacing them just to be sure since I was having some leaking or if the mechanic says they are fine I should just let them be? 3) worth...
