yeah me and my buddy pulled the rear, well mainly my buddy I'm to slow compared to him working on a car, he's a mech. I work in ins. go figure. But did all the laying in oil breaking the bolts loose, things like that anyway it came off a 1LE car that was from up north. So it was a rusted up, so I sand blasted it (Talking about things that sucked) and primer it up and repainted it. My buddy changed the bearings and one of my axles, it was bent But it's all good now, Later I plan to repull it later and put some POR 15 on it, I just didn't have the time and money at this time, but I'm going to do it later. But got the new cover on what do you think!!

yeah I picked up from www.strangeengineering.net, for about $138 alittle bit of coin, but well worth it. I would have got the summit one, but they were out and were on back order. It's about the same price and this one looks cool too. But it came with all the bolts you need, but no gasket. They recommend RTV so that you have a better seal. And plus this one has the set up for the extra support braces that you can get to help support it too. For later down the line.

Heh, I should have bought one a couple weeks ago when I had everything apart on mine. Guess I had spent enough though, 625 bucks for a new radiator and a powertrax locker Maybe when I order up some other parts to get rid of the dang wheel hop I have now
