oh word, yea I didnt know what the plans were thats the first thing that just popped into my head. looks good so far though!
well i was waiting on a d44 but came across this limited slip 8.25 so i said the hell with it because d44 is only a 1/4 inch larger ring gear

mmm, looks scrumptious
i wanna do this to my 8.25....soon as i'm not broke, & then get a welder & then learn to weld....
where u putting the shock mounts? just higher up on the housing?? i've seen them welded to the leaf spring top mounting plate....any benefit to that??
