a week?? no reason why air lockers + c&p swap should take more than 2 days.
2 airlockers in an 80 is an easy day job, the diff gears are a bit time comsuming to set up right but it's not rocket science.

true, but when you find out that your wheel bearings, brakes, hand brake, seals, and a whole lot of other mechanical stuff that is farked, it sort of stuffs you around a bit!! and also not getting the right nut for the diff gears

caused quite a bit of pain trying to find a nut to fit the new crown wheel and pinion, but it is ok now as it will be ready tonight!!!
