Rebuilding rear end on truck. Never worked on final drives Before so suggestions and past experiences are appreciated.
Final drive is out of housing and housing is off truck.
Seats that hold final drive to u bolts have a lot of cracks on upper halves. Bottom haves are in good shape.
Any opinions on repairing or replacing upper seats. See pictures

Going to attack gears and bearings today
Ring gear has 37 teeth
