Is it possible to bend a blade without the spindle or deck itself bending? I bent a blade, and hoping I can just replace it, but worried something else is bent

I just did mine last week. I got 146k miles on my 2010 GMC. It was my dad’s truck. I bought it from my mother when my dad passed. I don’t think he’s ever serviced it and he used to haul a big trailer with 3 slide outs. I was terrified to pull the cover. To my surprise, the rear differential was spotless. Oil was dark and a bit smelly, but no glitter and hardly any build up on the magnet. The front differential,.. that one had some wicked stalagmites on the magnet. Got the transfer case while I was there. Filled them all up with AMSOIL products and she’s a happy truck. High miles and 14yrs old and purs like she just came off the lot. My dad and I both always change out the oil every 3k miles and only use top tier synthetic oils. I replaced the valve covers because I just a sicko that replaces things that ain’t broke to begin with. The valleys were spotless. Should be, the oil comes out pretty clean every 3k and never any loss through the combustion chamber.😂😂😂😂

Just had my transmission recased because transfer case locked up and broke the transmission adapter and cracked the transmission case. My transmission guy swapped the case and I put it in and it wouldn’t shift. I did code scan on my Marco scanner and it showed 0 codes. I went into ABS and seen the pending rear abs wheel speed sensor code, and cleared it. All is well!! I went ahead and bought a new VSS just to be 100%. Thanks SO GREATLY!!!

I have a 2000 Jeep Wrangler Sport, 4.0L 6 cyl, 5-speed manual transmission. Bought it in 2010, and don't think it has ever had Transmission fluid OR Front/Rear differential fluids changed. It only has about 80k original miles on it and runs perfectly. Only had it in the sand once in North Carolina and had no problems with all tires aired down to about 10 psi. But now I am starting to do all the maintenance that I have neglected over the years. I have already replaced front disk pads, rotors, and calipers, and rear drum shoes, springs, etc, cleaning everything as I went with plenty of BrakeCleaner. Fixed the E-brake, and it works well now. I engineered a system to drain the fuel tank by jumpering the fuse box to allow the fuel pump to operate with the engine turned off, to empty out 2 year old gas, then ran SeaFoam and fresh gas through two whole tank-fulls to clean the fuel rail. I have replaced the battery, water pump, all belts, spark plugs, air filter, and the occasional plastic things that you always break on a 24 year vehicle when working on it.. lol. It has every option on it that Jeep made back in 2000, including A/C. It came with both a hard top and rag top, and spare doors. It has NO rust underneath anywhere. (I live in Virginia Beach, VA) However, now I want to do the fluid changes on both differentials and the transmission. My concern is in identifying the exact front and rear diffs to put the correct amount (and type) of gear oil in, and whether my 5-speed is Synchromesh or not. From reading most of the posts here, I believe I have the DANA 30 in the front, and probably the DANA 35 in the rear (Everything on this Jeep is original) But, how can I tell for sure? I will attach pictures if I can to show what I am looking at, and hope someone can verify my assumptions. I will add that I also have a 2011 Toyota Tundra Crewmax 4X4 and have done all of the differential and Xfer case fluid exchanges on it, so I am familiar (in general) with the basic procedures. I just want to know EXACTLY what kind of axles/differentials I have on this Jeep. All inputs will be welcomed.. Thanks in advance. Randy

Did you just input your VIN into the build sheet generator online that spits out your factory build sheet? That is best way to know what it shipped with. Then you have to make sure no one changed out the diffs before you owned it.
