I wish I had a glass beader lol

Few steps forward .

Housing was straightened

Tubes and plugs redone

MW ends welded on .


Word to the wise , if you are spending money on building a diff up , check to make sure it is straight first before investing money in a bent housing.
Was not a big aside in this case as I was doing ends anyway but this wagon housing had a pronounced sag .

Its so refreshing to see someone take the extra time to do something right. Like the shock mounting holes.

Gerry, was it hard to weld the tubes? Any issues with not getting rust, grease, schmootz out of the tube/housing interface and affecting the weld?

It is important to note that I did not do the finish work on my tubes this time around
The housing had to be straightened and and jigged for the ends and I do not own the fixture.
,
The guy that did the tubes and ends , Dwayne Kremyr , I use on the race car pieces where a failure could be catastrophic.

Prepping , this housing was exceptionally clean to start with.
I washed it ,glass beaded, repeatedly warmed it, dosed and scrubbed the joints with acetone

Why, the faster car owners with 30 spline diffs ask ??

Well the combination of manual trans , weight , rear bias, and slicks does this every time I go to the track with production axles


stock 30 axle left , MW 33 right

Are the stock axle's splines bent/deformed after that race? Or is material stripped away from them? Pardon my lack of knowledge at what I'm seeing.

Looks pretty twisted to me.

Sedan stand off dimension allows thick flanges and bolt in studs.
When I had the wagon dimension, this was impossible
