Yes the 9in rear end is in so I hope that my inline 6 won't destroy it?

Here it is before I started.


Time for the crappy one to come out!


ITS OUT OH MY GOSH


Cleaning up the temp wheels just a little work to get these to fit.


Much MUCH better


The after math


well there you go next week the 6cyl front brakes come off!

Looks great! Just curious why you didn't paint the third member before the axle was installed?

Kind of on a time constraint and the third member had been painted before just not recently

edit: painted the third member on 5/14/08 put new leaf springs on.

Hey 68keyblr:

when you had the front 96gt wheels on does if require spacers to fit or can I just bolt them up and go minus the center caps?

Cobain03:

it wasn't to hard took about a day and half, but i got a rebuilt rear end so that saved time. the hardest parts where getting the rear brake line to unthread, shorting the rear drive shaft and finding a universal ujoint to fit the rear end yoke, but the car rides a lot better and I don't have to worry when I put my future 347 or 383 stoker motor in it.
