Looks good snow! Is your hood open on that last pic?

Yeah, when we stopped back in that quarry, the blazer started getting hot so I cracked the hood and little to let it breathe. Not something I'd recommend, but top speed out there was about 10mph.

Thanks Btw. You ever get that eaton up and running? I'm thinking about going eaton front and rear and have heard nothing but good from the guys I know that run them. Those are pretty much jeepers running them though.

Eaton doesn't make one for the front.

I was just saying that if you swap in something like a dana 44, the possibilities open way up.

I wish we had a selectable option in our stock front end, and I think that would solve a lot of the issues guys have had running the lock rites up there.

There's a guy on zr2usa.com that is working on a bolt in dana 30 diff that will allow for something like an eaton. If I hadn't recently decided to move to the sfa swap, I'd probably go that route.

Either way, I was just saying there are always options and I will be running a front locker someday hopefully soon.
