Awesome! thanks man, I have the tech manuals on my laptop, I just hadn't finished going through them all. thanks for the info!

Hey guys, I have been scouring the internet for this information and have been unsuccessful thus far. I am trying to get my heater fixed before it starts cooling off and when I checked under the hood I discovered that the hoses that come off the heater core are not connected, the upper hose is...

If you don't mind me asking rich, how much did your set up run you including the cost of the 1-ton axles? I've been really looking into doing the axle swap but can't really find them online for less than $3k a set. Did you pull them at a junkyard?
