    One of the benefits of owning a lift

    Is getting to wrench on a variety of vehicles.  This is a friend of mine's 35 Dodge 5 window coupe. It has a blown 400 chebby with a turbo 400 trans and last but not least a 12 bolt chebby rearend with FORD axles and hubs!! It has no problem turning those fat Mickeys!!!

    Ahhh Terry, the consumate host!!
    Go ahead slide an 8.8 into his machine, It's a copy of a Chevy 12 bolt anywho, though stronger with 31 splined axles.
    Which BTW brings up another point in favor of 8.8 vs 9" ford. The 8.8 aces the 9's achiles heel with a larger pinion shaft.

    If it ain't broke, I haven't modified it Yet

    Hey Terry,
    Let me know if a house on your block comes up for sale. I would love to have a neighbor with a lift.
    Nice looking shop and great cars.

    I be happy with that much room. I changed a master cylinder on my one car and muffler & brakes on my truck while dodging rain drops this past weekend.

    If this forum can't fix it, it isn't broke.
