Is that a true Ford 9" or is it like a Currie or someother brand? I know Currie makes 'bolt in' rear ends for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd gens. Not sure about 4th. From the sounds of all the grinding it wasn't a 'bolt in' one
Should be pretty BAMF.

it's actually a mutt 9 inch lol..... Moser 9 inch housing with a Strange Center section. basically just a 9 inch center that moser welded on the axle tubes and everything to "fit" an f-body. but i had to do a little more grinding to get the Torque Arm mount to fit.
Larry get's a cookie
he was right i had to grind a crap load more to use the second set of TA mount holes because the TA hit the tunnel....anyways..... yeah i got that figured out. and then i mounted the flex line that goes from the chassis to the rear end. now i need to go buy some more brake line. because what i bought wasn't long enough. i had a perfect piece bent and everything but i need a few more inches (that's what she said
hahaha JK) flamed myself before you guys could lol...... yea so time for some more stuff....update later tonight when im further along

yeah i get that a lot cause im only 19. but I work at a detail shop and we do a TON of expensive high end stuff. and we do boats as well (which pays really big) if you look under the car pictures section. i have a thread of a bunch of pics i took over a span of a few days at my work of the kinds of things i do (found the thread http://mifbody.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=3137). i don't have a "set amount" of what i get paid. because i get commission on whatever i do. i get paid 35 or 40%...i forget
of whatever i do. now that it's spring and "boat season" (busy time) i'm making between $600 and $700 a week cash. so that's not too bad for being 19.
but the biggest part of it i would say is that
A) no girlfriend right now = HUGE SAVINGS
B) living at home = $Free.99 a month
and my only bills are
1) Cell Phone
2) Car Payment ($300 a month)
3) Food...lots of food....i have a high metabolism hahaha
that's the run down on my monetary situation for anyone that cared

lol its probably a good thing ive never had a gf... i mean, i probably wouldnt have these headers right nowOriginally posted by Keego Ridahget er done, the gf thing is very true, you save tons of money and also it's a form of weight reduction lol

good point about the weight reduction lol, thats why many young lads such as myself go for the lightweight ones
