Rear end built.

Today I was helped by a friend of a friend named RJ building my rear end.
We put all new bearings in and a new set of 3.55 gears. Pretty cool how it all goes together. We did have to take the center section apart a few times to get everything just right we got lucky on the pinion spacing it only took one adjustment.
Next is to paint the rear end and then mount it on my money pit. So 90 percent complete on that project feels pretty good!

Thanks again to Bob for letting us use his shop and RJ for putting hours of hard work into my rear end.
