Well started swapping the rear axles over today. And the worst happen and when trying to lower the front end so it wasn't so high up on the jack stands and the truck slipped off. Nothing was damaged just scared the shit out of me lol. Thankfully I had a few friends helping me out

Yea no one was injured thankfully but it was like a WTF just happened lol. But slowly and carefully continued on and got the new axle on to the CC.
 
I wasn't lol that's the thing. I was trying to lower it to prevent it from happening lol. But all the jacks I seem to have one speed for lowering lol
 
Yea its a friend of mine who I am doing the trade with. They are suppose to start the powder today finally! Hopefully I can pick it up tomorrow
