Default Re: 12 bolt R.E. housing question--

I build my own stuff and what I do is first weld the tubes to the center section. I then cut the tube ends off and use a jig bar too align and weld the housing ends. Then I build a truss to keep the housing ends from pulling into its self, (if you don't do this it will bend). I also use MW caps on both sides. You need to grind the caps to fit, take your time this is important. Buy quality parts and stay away from the swap meet stuff.
