Re: "Rice Rocket'
Well, Ignored the little red fourwheeler this afternoon.
I finished grinding/torching my hitch, its ready for welding (Too thick to MIG weld gf dad said). So I gotta find a 220 outlet to plug the ARC welder into. Also, I got my parking brake fixed still have a bit more adj. to do but its close. Going to do this mod too in the future. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=425922

Re: "Rice Rocket'
Yeah, LOTTA work lol
And Id really wanna put new bearings/seals on it first. Im trying to figure out what yoke I can use (preferbly from another model, because 67 72 are kinda hard to find, esp. easy to get to the yoke (usualy up to their axles in mud lol)

Re: "Rice Rocket'
If you're talking about the axle that was missing the pinion yolk, the gears are junk. Even if it was only used as a trailer.
Doesn't your 6 lug axle have the narrow 2" brakes(non-finned drum)? If it does you could slide the 5 lug axles in and use the 5 lug drums (wider finned drums). Sure the axles are longer, but the drums being wider make up for it so the brakes work. Not completely correct, but will work. just an idea |

Re: "Rice Rocket'
Im not trying to contradict ya,but I started a thread in the main section (posted a link above) and everyone over there said it'll work with a yoke, maybe they didnt read that IT WAS USED AS A TRAILER).
Its non finned drums on my 6 lug rear...

Re: "Rice Rocket'
I'll re phrase. I would not use it with the current gears. The pinion looks to be missing the front bearing which would have let the pinion work up and down as it moved causing damage and a weird wear pattern. It may be ok, but is it worth the risk? To me, no.
