That'll have to do it for now for the picture whores... lol

I'll update more as we keep going.. If all works well it'll be at the ///RA show. Just hope I can get all the parts here by then..

It had a Dana 80 in it and I changed it to a 14 bolt and now I gotta get a new drive shaft because mine is now an 1" too short.. Any ideas on that guys? I know the Dana 80 was 1" longer and that has to be why it's now too short.. But at least a shaft isn't something that's hard to get built.

I wish I could.. I had to take the collar loose off the slip to let it travel back. I've thought about raising the carrier bearing but if I do that it takes away from the room I have for the wishbone.. So I dunno what to do except get a new shaft built.
