Great video This was a lot of help doing this for the first time myself. Glad I stopped and watched for sure. We'll be watching more videos for sure

I have an 03 Chevy duramax what part number is the axle nut socket you used??

[@DIYDiesel]

GM 4x4 Rear Axle Nut from AutoZone

[@HorsepoweredRims]

Good job. Doesn't this apply to the same era 1500HD?

[@DIYDiesel]

The 1500HD has a few different steps as to why I didn’t label it as both

[@2015_Rubicnn]

Are you still using the Kryptonite traction bars?

[@DIYDiesel]

Yup 👍 going to be installing them back on once I get a new hardware kit for them
