not sure if id call it overkill, perhaps insurance is a better word. Good job.

 

[F8L GT]

and what are you going to run this in?

 

[takiller]

Theres no such thing as overkill for the rear end

I want one :drool

 

[BaznastyDave]

What exactly is it and what kinda guts it have in it?

 

[Nossit]

Now go break your transmission lol.

Looks good man. +1

It's an 8.8 rear with coilover brackets welded on and then tubing welded to the housing to stop it from flexing.

But what i posted is overkill lol. Those are jeeps that we drive through 5 foot mud holes, over small trees, jump at the dunes and just plain beat the **** out of. Bottom truss designs are always stronger and i actually like your design.

What did you use to weld the steel to cast?

BTW looks sick. It's what I would expect of you.

You can weld just fine to the center section if thats what your asking?


OP, are you swapping your 9" out for this??

I'm actually having the tubes shortened for a bigger tire. Since it's a full out racecar now and won't see practically any street use. You can see my 9" center section In the 4th pic 35 splines of goodness

A very big car show is coming up next week here so I want to get the car there to promote my business. Can't do it without a rear lol.

 

[F8L GT]

[Trick Tuners]

I like overkill! Too much is just enough.

If i was promoting my business i would of done cleaner welds. I know its under the car but if your spending time painting and fabbing stuff, do it right.
