[QUOTE="the_white_shadow, post: 648210, member: 10112"] Put in some more work this weekend. Doesnt look like much, but it was a lot. 1. Tore down the old axle for its parts. 2. Fully welded out the front axle. 3. Tried to install the gears in the new housing using the same bearings and shims. Well i couldnt get that lucky, so I took it to a local mechanic and wheeler to have him setup the gears correctly. I dont have a press yet so doing diff work would have been challenging. 4. Installed the Improved Racing baffling in the f-body oil pan and installed on engine. 5. Welded out my driveshafts and painted them. Ill get them installed today. 6. Welded out the rear end and boxed in the bump pads. Painted it as well. 7. painted all 8 links 8. installed the rear end and squared it up. Pics. New baffle. Hope it keeps the oil pressure in check.
