[QUOTE=Mark Yacavone;618405]We had Chrysler side gears and Henry's Axles in 1970...because we had to.

Likewise, Chrysler side gears, Henry's axles, shim the clutch pack tight, torque up those weird left hand bolts, then weld the two halves together. Add steel caps and longer cap bolts and it might be good for a few runs with a stick car. Not sure when we first tried this, 67 or 68.
