Ok guys
I lost reverse on my truck so pulled the transmission apart. Had lots of wear and endplay. So going to a attempt to rebuild it. My wifes FIL used to do stock rebuilds at work. He will help me also. Looking to do a stock rebuild with just a few cheap extras to help it last.
Lots of guys rollerize the rear. Some drive the rear bushing in .050" or get a case saver bushing and put it in backwards to located the new bearing. But the case saver I got is same height as the stock bushing not counting the lip. Any reason not to grind the lip off on the outside and then I will have plenty of bushing to locate the bearing? Anyone done this?
