After all of this work I put the axles in, filled the trans with gear old and the car fired up!

The next day however, I wasn't so happy..
Yep, gear oil. Not too far from there, there was coolant too. I don't know if you guys have ever had this problem, but while taking off the heater core hoses, I bent the shit out of the core's bungs. They were a PITA to try to straighten out too. It obviously didn't work. I threw a better hose clamp on it and that fixed it (only to have the other side start leaking the other day). With the down time, I got the cars lights working.
As you can guess, the output shaft seals were shot. So while it was apart, what did I do? New output shaft seals, new wheel bearings, inner and outer seals and new brake rotors. I filled the trans. and we were good, no leaks!
Here is the most recent picture of the car. Nothing has changed, lol.
My battery relocation. And yes, the box is held down with some nice sized bolts.
As you can imagine, the underside of the hood was stained from oil. So I painted it black to give it a nice..r look. lol
There you all are; you're all caught up!
