Tracy Lee / Flight 59 Nearing the Finish Line

[texascowboy593]

Thanks everyone for the input!

Wheelie, It's a F@rd 9" for now. The axle housing is cracked (been that way for a long time) and I need to either find one from the junkyard or pony up some serious cash for a new one. It's 54 inches flange to flange and you just cant find that size anywhere. I don't know much about rear ends (that doesn't sound right) but I know the axles are splined like a Chevy (?) It has the chevy bolt pattern and the brake parts / drums match up with a 70 Chevelle (per NAPA). I may go GM 12 bolt. Whatever is easier to obtain and costs less. My wife is watching the bank account!!!
