I'm curious if you have notched out any of your bed supports, my diff was hitting one of them when at 6" rear drop, which is one reason I pulled my bed when I did the notch. Also if you didn't and your ABS doesn't work, its because the ABS sensor wire on the rear end is routed on top of the diff and mine was smashed and shorting out.

I didn't remove the bed, and yes my abs is on for that reason. I have not had a whole lot of time lately to work on moving the wire yet. have you priced one yet?

No, I left it as it was, just moved the wire for now, but I plan to do my U joints in a week or two and will just fix the wire by soldering in a new wire. It's tied into the charcoal canister wire harness so unless you got a new pigtail with like 2' leads, it will be easier to just replace a section of the wires

Not yet. The fellla that is working on it does body work full time at local shop. And he has had some family issues come up recently. So right now the roll pan is fitted and the tailgate has been started.
