9" Installed

Well, I finally got the 9" installed tonight. Boy life would be a lot easier if i had a lift or a partner to help me manuver that heavy-*** monster around. Anyways, Its got a posi, disc brakes, 3.89 gears, 1/2 in extended length studs. The usual.

If I was mechanically inclined at all, this shouldve been a half days job instead of 3.

Still havent had a chance to beat on it....I bled the brakes and they are still real soft ..I let the MC go dry
Also, I need to get some e-brakes fabbed up *cough* Don *ahem*

But you'll hopefully never have to install another rearend housing in the car with a somewhat bulletproof 9".

Now you can wear T-shirts with sayings like,

"I love my 9 inch "

or

"My heart is a Chevy, but my *** is a Ford".

Where'd you get the 9" from, Currie?

I dont want to lie and not mention the other 2 inches

Actually I bought it from your buddy Pablo...
With David needing a rear end I just happened to have, and Pablo selling one at a REAL reasonable price already set up for a thirdgen, and me happening to have a lil bit of disposable income, it was a no-brainer.
