Hello from suburban St. Louis actually, east side of the Mississippi River. Found the site while searching repair info on Trailvoy.com. Just finished replacing front axles, hubs AND splined disconnect. I've got on '05 Envoy XL SLE we bought new. 104,000 mile on it now. I'm just getting into the off roading. Did some on vacation in Colorado last summer, so the bug has bit. Never being satisfied with leaving mechanical things as is, (much to my wifes dismay!), I've started making the list of mods in store for "Ole Blue". But first I'll be reading up as much as possible, prioritize order of mods to be accomplished, and try not to post anything that gets me a spot on the "Wall of Shame" for stupid posts ! :wallbash:

Where abouts in the metro east? I'm up in Alton and it's nice to know that there's someone from around here anywhere remotely close. And ditto on the list, mine started as a few items and now it's longer than my arm.
