Well, one of the things I wanted to do is get the rear end shortened... going to probably take it out next week and send it to my chassis shop to get done

Nice, be sure to get some pics, are you going with a wider rear tire or just looking to tuck the wheels up into the fender wall?

Just want to tuck them in... I love the "mini tub" look half inch on each side would be perfect for me. Front's will be tucked aswell with the new rims

700 points? How? You plan on poisoning the entire field?
Get all the points you can, Slick. When I roll into Atco Raceway....The Onslaught begins.

Yeah....the misery and chaos that comes from them seeing their precious points lead get smashed to hell is intoxicating to me.

Try to get some good details on the C-clip eliminator job. Curious to see if it goes any smoother than the ones Blazing saddles did.

Finally got some time today to work on the car. My old man left for vacation yesterday and im going to have a chaotic week here at the shop starting tomorrow but im going to keep pounding on this thing.
First things first, get the mega bogarts off
Considering I did like over 100 burnouts last year just doing brake stands the rear pads arn't as bad as I thought they would be..
Rear caliper taken off bracket and moved aside, along with the caliper brackets and pads..
Pan hard bar removed at this point, and rear end cover loose draining out the fluid (no matter how many times I smell rear end fluid I always hate it more and more xD)
Stock posi, and my well known 4.30 ring gear lol
C-clips are removed and axle's on the way out
Gotta love ford with stock 31 splines...
New strange C-clip eliminater with caliper bracket compared to stock bracket (old bearing still in rear end at the moment)
The guts
Seperated the ring gear from the posi to weigh it
(and I can sell the stock posi lol)
Stock posi unit (no cross pin) with bearings 16lbs
Strange 8.8 spool with hardware (no bearings or pin) 8lbs (roughly 8 lbs of rotating mass gone)
This is how it sit's right now with everything out except the axle bearings. I will be cutting the end of the axles and the axle tubes on tuesday so check back soon
