    I hate to see you part it out...but if you do will the rear fit with no problems under my 94 z?if so how much would you ask for it?plus my rear with 3.42 gear and posi.95,000 miles on it
    what transmission do you have? the gears in this axle are 4.57's they are really steep, the calculated max speed with street tires for my car is 108 with the slicks its 140 with a 3 speed auto. and an engine that makes power to over 7600 rpm

    also guys/gals, My jetski might sell this week or next week. which means i might be able to save up the 1000 i need to finish this car and have it done in the spring if i decide not to sell. i still am looking to sell as a whole id hate to part it out. ive got a ton of hours into this car as does joel, jon, and a few others from this board have put some time into this. the reason id hate to part this also is due to the fact i am running out of places to keep things. i have the whole interior in the basement. half the original parts in my garage. and in the barn up in imlay city. i have multiple sets of tires. i spent 1000 on my rear wheels/tires in the spring. never used. the rear axle cost me over 2000. and scott cut me a deal on it because ive helped him out on a few things and given him my old axles whenever they broke. and the rear ends been mounted never used. just pushed the car about 200 ft total since the install. on and off the trailer thats it. Joel with definately agree with me that i pretty much didnt spare much expense when i was building this car. i didnt want a car that was going to break. i ended up running into a problem on my last build with my crane roller rockers. i had to change them out midway through the racing season with a set of trick flow roller rockers. the cranes roller studs were backing out causing the roller the freeze and causing unwanted wear on my valve stems. the heads have larger valves, i had them installed when i had the head work done.
    theres alot of planning into the vehicle also. like i said ill be reasonable if your offers are reasonable.

      also keep in mind that if you want to street that rear axle youll probably want to swap the spool out for a posi unit.

            im trying to be able to keep it. Honestly its the last thing i want to do is sell that or my dodge. unemployment only pays so much lol. and if i dont find a job in the next 6 weeks im left with no option but to take what a dealership will give for my dodge and to just tear this thing apart and sell it off to make the bills. as my mom also is unemployed she got laid off 3 months ago still hasnt found a job. I HATE THIS STATE. the best part was the reason they let me go lol. But its still the best thing that happened to me i hated that place.

            Anyway im open for offers if it catches my eye its yours.

                it will take alot of work to get the tires to fit in a stock FBODY, you will need offset LCA's and your fenders flared out about an inch and cut a bit. along with a Mini tub kit.

                It has 29.5x11.5x15's on weld prostars 15x10 with 7.5 backspace
