o ya its a little dirty. If it's not dirty your not playing with it hard enough lol. So now lets install the new one now TopCad Aluminum Rear Axle Lock-out Version 2 For Honcho & Dingo #22412bk. But before you install it you might want to put some marine grease in the axles is you plan on playing in the water. Since I play alot in the water mine are done already and now my lock-out is installed

Again if you plan on playing in the water use Marine Grease before you install your dog bones or take apart your axles and grease the gears as well. Now that all my axles are greased already its time to start putting everything back together. But make sure to clean your bearings before installing them on you dog bones and CHubs.

Now that both sides are done I think its time to the stoogies out for a little trail ride and test out everything. Now you might be saying how can you test out the rear lock-out. And ya you might be right but they look better then the stock plastic ones and they will hold up alot better then them as well.
