The cone sure-grip lasted all of 2,000 miles and was starting to give up the ghost so it was time.

I never planned on making this much power or I never would have built and 8 3/4. The new Dana will have a spool.

The best thing was this was the first time I had trailered the car instead of driving it so it made for less of a hassle.


Good thing you just bought that new trailer! Mmmmmm.....Dana 60....
