As I began to work on the rear end, I found an issue with the V8R bracket and the diff plate integration. I first ground the plate, but in the end, it needs to be so deep that it creates a hole in the diff plate. What to do? Weld it up, of course...

Had to modify the rearend cover to fit the V8R bracket. Unit is upside down. |
