She is out and on the bench. It was easy drive shaft, shift rods and speedo cable. Used a quad jack which I made a wooden cradle for and lowered out from underneath plenty of room.
One thing was super odd, but don’t forget I’ve never really driven this truck yet. When we went to push it in the garage, I already had the starter out. We had four guys and it took everything we had to push it in the garage. Front wheel spin fine however with the driveshaft out, I jacked up the rear end and I can turn both your wheels clockwise but when I try to go counterclockwise, both sides are super hard to turn the driver side actually clunks when you try to go counterclockwise. Not sure what that’s all about but it sounds like something is messed up. I doubt it’s just the brake shoes hanging up.
