Going through all the video and still photos taken during our trip to Fort Saskatchewan, AB to pick up and then drive this sweet ‘69 Dodge D400 back to Nanaimo, BC back in early May. What a great adventure and this is a cool photo I took while stopped in Jasper, AB during the return trip. That’s my buddy 1932 Essex body on the deck. In the Dec/Jan issue of Canadian Hot Rod’s magazine I’ll chronicle the trip a little and I’ll be working on a video for the Tin Junkies YouTube channel as well. I’ll make a post when the video is completed.

*update
Thanks to Chris Carlson I now know that these are to set axle bearing preload…so likely fell out when pulled axles and likely not cause of clunking …closer look at diff needed and new axle bearings while I’m at it.

For the 8 3/4 guys out there….pretty sure these pins shouldn’t be floating free in the diff case😂…explains the alarming binding/clunking noises the rearend suddenly began making recently…but only sometimes during left hand turns. One was sitting in the bottom of the diff housing the other fell out when I removed the differential. My rebuild knowledge on these is zero…..what did these pins (?) used to do.
