What have you guys done to stabalize the XL

[Finnster]

couple more things... Some of the trouble you may be having (like bulkhead) will be just due to having a pre owned truck obviously, so don't take it as an indictment of the whole thing.

but, as far as the castor blocks/ballends go... Do you have washers and nuts thru the ballends? I have never had one of mine come out, so its suprising you are having so much trouble. The ballend could just be wore out and loose and needs replacement, but it shouldn't be coming out so much.

Cen diffs: Yeah, I noticed the ebay market price for the Cen diffs has gone way up recently. I got my diffs for less than $20 apiece, and the mod is fairly easy. I know some guys are doing premoded diffs, but they are $$$. Hopefully the prices will come down again soon.
