And this is what the guy bringeth me.

This is one LITE driveshaft. I'd give it about 12-14 lbs if that. I feel like it will break if I handle it too much.

4.56 time, or what?

No Sir...

3.73's and Track-lok. Just waiting on an IRS Pinnion Brace and bushings, 255LPH/HP pump, and my mechanic to get back from vacation.

If all goes well, everything should be installed by next Friday, a week from tomorrow.

I would have done the driveshaft and Fuel pump, but since the OEM driveshaft has to come off for the gear swap anyways, I figured I'll let him do all the under the car work. It is nice to have a lift....

~Mental Note~ Hijack Santa's Sleigh This Christmas, and see if he has a car lift in his "toy" bag.

Rich T, mn12.

Options: irs_option: Add IRS Diff Bushings $260.00 1 $260.00

I was going to get the Diff Cover mount as well, but I'll have to wait on that for a bit. My accountant yelled at me today for spending way too much too quickly on parts... What does the guy know, he drives a Corolla... A 92, at that.

OOOO. AFPR!!!!!

Gotta Get me one of them too.

I thought Dennys sent me the 1350 Series??????????????

How much torque will the 1330 take? I wonder if it will live with ~500 Ft. Lbs...

Yea...they will live under 500+. 1330's are plenty for your average hodrod lincoln. 1350's are for 700+ with traction. You'll twist the half-shafts before you break the 1330's

That reminds me...

I gotta Call Raxles. Thanks 94!
