| I took my wagon to my Local mechanic on Tuesday and got it back today. He found that the axle barrings were bad its now quiet as a mouse no more whine and grinding noise. I found out that I have 28 Spline axles so I can now order the Detroit TruTrac and Gears.. So I am going to call out to Randy's and get the ball going.. | |

| Did you or the previous owner replace the 30 spline axle shafts with 28 spline axle shafts ? If not, and you have the OEM 30 spline axle shafts, you need this truetrac: 913A481 | |

| They did the repair for $250 but they did some warranty as they replaced the Pinion seal a few months ago. I may jack up the wagon and pull out an axle and count the spline teeth my self. | |

| You don't need to. They are 30 spline. Lots of mechanics think they know everything. Older B bodies had 28 spline. | |
