  4. Good running truck. Is that a small block? What are the specs? Was that a 9" kinda hard to tell from what's left?

    Sorry for the damage, but THAT WAS COOL!

    I mean if you're going to break something, you might as well break it right.

    Pretty typical 9" Ford problem. They have a tendency to "push" the pinion forward, breaking the bolts or stripping the carrier assembly. Also happens with the 8" Ford. It's their weak link. Is it Mark Williams or Strange that makes an aftermarket thrid member that uses G.M.'s 12 bolt gears and technolgy? It drops the pinion lower in relation to the ring gear.

    Glad to see him pull over to the side before he oiled the entire track. Good move on his part. Love the sound of that truck.
