rear end swap
installed my posi rear this weekend. Picked it up used for 100.
had my lca relocation brackets welded on and painted it all up. so far a rear easy swap installed my new spohns lca's and adjustable panhard bar. now i am just wainting for my shocks and springs to show up and the rear will be complete. with the exception of the brakes which are coming from baer. It is an easy swap and i would recomend it to any back yard mechanic.
anyone know the pinoin angle? should it be 0 i forget to check it before removal.

clean what part? the rear was sanded down and painted and will get a por 15 treatment once it arrives. the backing plate for the brakes will be leaving with the baer replacement coming. what else is there?
