Hi all. Installed a Moser 8.8" solid axle rear end and Koni coil over shocks, there are a few pictures below. All went well except for one small problem (and it was just me). I initially installed the rear end under the panhard mount brace instead of over it. I didn't realize it had to go over until I tried to install the Koni coil over shocks and they wouldn't reach the lower shock mounts on the rear end. It only took about 5 minutes to disconnect the upper link and lower control arms from the rear end, left them connected to the frame mounts. With a little help from my wife, a jack and a couple of 2x4's, reinstalled it over the brace in no time at all. It went really quickly since I had done it once already and knew what to do. Live and learn. Next, I have the 11.5" rear disk brake kit from FFR and will install that this weekend. Got an email from Tuff Dawg Engines in Phoenix, AZ and a phone call from Old Dominion Freight Lines on Wednesday, the Ford stroker 347 small block motor is on it's way, will be here Monday the 25th, woo hoo. I already have a Tremec TKO 600 5 speed tranny, a steel bell housing, a 28 oz. flywheel and a Ramforce clutch. Still have to get an ignition system, carburetor, water pump, pulleys and belts to complete the motor. Thinking of having the motor dyno'ed, will see. Well, that's about it for this post. Will Post more later.
