No sir, unless i need to sit for 20 minutes with a wire wheel in the same spot it doesn't work. Maybe its just me but when i started cleaning off my axles i thought the same thing, wire wheel should do it....nope sat there for like 5 minutes didnt do a thing. It seems like the wheel just slides right across the chrome instead of digging in. yeah I should probably come take that off your hands then. you can wait for another one without a chrome dif cover...

Screw wire wheels, go with the 3-m wheels, last longer and work better

I just threw a D60/S10.25 under my TJ. only good advice i can give is to BUY NEW METAL! which i can see you already have, so good work. Im actually going to buy all new mounting hardware and do this over because Im a poor bastard and couldnt afford it the first time. I tried to reuse the factory metal... lets just say it didnt end well. also, dont weld anything on until you have your new springs, may not be an issue for you because you have a longer WB than i do, but this is the other reason i have to redo all the brackets, because im going lower, and changing the mounting angles will be saving me precious degrees when it comes to my rear pinion angle. the 10.25 is a fucking boat anchor too, so that doesnt help. if i think of anything else we had trouble with during my swap, ill post it up, otherwise, good luck dude.

Proly a stupid question but jeepforum told me this so it must be fact, am i going to have to shorten my driveshafts because of the change in pinion length and lift height?
Should have paycheck with monies comin at end of the month, hopefully updates will be in order.
