New Yukon thick 4.10 gear with new install kit
Axles donated by generous, helpful , kind member and from the Commonwealth to boot
Original ET rear finned aluminum cover
New multileafs
Lakewood vintage square tube bars with tails

Still need: axle bearings & seals, perches, 400# or stiffer posi springs, ? Got a hold of Tom’s Differential and need to place an order...soon. Then, I need a couple of young bucks to keep a boot up my rear and help get it all together.

We've probably talked about this before, but I don't remember. Are the spring perches damaged or gone? Axle bearings and seals are easy. They are the same for almost every car 7.5, 8.2, 8.5 and 12 bolt from '64 and up. When you get the 400# springs are you going to get new clutches too, or just shim the clutches that you have? Bring it down and we'll put it together. Just give me time to get ready for it. My shop is a mess.

That's cool. Too bad they will be on the bottom where most people won't see them.

Not true! The competition will get a glimpse as they are being run over by the mighty rat!

Cool Bolts. I have a complete set of similar Mr. Gasket bolts on the 12 bolt under the Nova.

I have a set of Rocket head bolts for small block. Sorry I don't have any of the big block ones for you.
