Beginning - the infamous spare tire carrier
Spare tire & carrier removed
A leaking differential - hmmm.....
Shot without the exhaust & rear transverse spring

:cool: Sounds like she's gonna move when you're done. That supercooler is a pain in the rear, we're putting one on my roomates Chevelle right now, and after going to six stores, we finally found NTP fittings(We had to use two fittings from Napa, one to downsize, the other to fit into the downsized fitting).
Don't forget U-Joints while you're in there.
Have fun. :cheers:

Re: Phase I has begun! (cprgmr)
good luck. u-joints are a good idea while you have it apart. By the way, ive heard others say you can switch the rear in 4 hrs. Well it took me 4 days. Course im slow, and I did the u-joints, fuel filter, speedo gears etc. but not the TC yet. Ill bet its going to be day and night difference when your done!!

All depends on your driving style. If you have around $100 to spare, get some cold forged units from Tom's Differential. Or you can call up Chris K @ the # below and he'll hook you up with some. :yesnod:

Why ask Why? Just do the U-Joints. We got guys that do them every year as preventive maintainence.
