Had Cody come over and help me measure the pinion angle, welded it all up, wrapped the perches, and got that baby painted!!

Cant wait to get to the track...

Guys Im curious,

On average what would this have cost me to have someone else narrow the housing, and go bullet proof my 3rd member?

I have about 300 bucks in making my Jig, and buying material. I bought seconds for cold rolled material so That saved me a bumch.

We had a friend narrow the one in our Dart so we got off cheap. $300 doesn't sound too shabby.

Looks very nice

That's more rear end than I have in my b'cuda. Mine is on borrowed time under my car so I have a Dana core on stand buy.

I like those wheels to

Thanks guys, its not perfect, but it should do fine. crazy how i made the thing exactly the same end to end, but i had to shift the housing almost a 1/2" to make the tires sit the same in the tubs. Something in the lil pink car must be off..
