yes, he's going to be getting a 35spline helical posi in a nodular 3rd to make the most of custom shafts. in the mean time though we needed to test the 4-link before tearing the front apart ... elimination of variables and all ... and still trying to decide on the front axle and what bolt pattern to run.

this
plus, it's smoother on the highway then his d35 was by a noticeable margin
we welded it in a set of v-blocks with a dial indicator on the flange, it's actually straighter then when i sold it to him
