Took vacation time yesterday to pickup my rebuilt final drive in Seattle, had lunch with my daughter, and back by 5:30 PM. Installed the drive this morning and it couldn't have been a more trouble-free installation. Usually the trick to get the final drive u-joint assembly spline and the driveshaft lined up takes about 10 minutes... it slid in the first time in around 10 seconds. I was in shock, but a happy shock. All assembled, filled with oil, torqued to specs... going to go out and test her, I'll publish the results later today.
128 miles the way it should always sound... went to Moses Lake and surprised my sister with a visit and back home again. 46°f average and it was nice to be back in business again.
Adventures and experiences with Bayerische Motoren Werke's finest.
