The rear is ready to be transplanted. . .
Well, I have my '72 rear end ready to go under my truck! After new wheel seals, all new brakes and making a tab to go on the rear end to use my 69 rear brake hose, the axle is finshed! Now I just need to wait for my new U-bolts to come in and the ole' 69 will be going onto jack stands to get the new rear!
The reason for the rear end swap is for the 3.07 gears to help with my cruzing, the 3.73's are too much. And 5 lug for my up and coming front disk brake swap! |

I can also rent a full size car trailer from a place up here, and I think it's about $15 cheaper. . . . . |

I will try and call you sometime this week. I realy want to get this rearend in, and the only thing holding me from tearing into it is the fact that I don't have the U-bolts yet. I really don't wanna tear into it untill I have all the parts that I know I need. |
