    You guys are such an inspiration! I’m getting ready to rebuild mine- and I’ll stick to it until I get results like yours! Perfect gear pattern, nice tight in spec backlash. Great job!

    I guess I won't moan when the garage tells me how much they want to rebuild a rear end. There is a lot to them....never really understood that until this video. Nice, detail.of how it's done, thanks for.sharing!!

    You should do after market upper and lower control arms when that rear end goes back in. Maximum Motorsports for the win.

    It’s worth putting on an aftermarket diff cover now while it’s easier to install. That way you have a fill hole and a drain👌🏻

      Did you talk to Matt? He is very knowledgeable on these cars, so that's very surprising to hear. Was it at the show? Maybe they had a lot going on at the time. Anyway, yeah fisherman John was interesting for sure. I don't know if he'll be back LOL.
