Re: I haven't got a crew......

G'day All,

xpickup, Larry, Kim, Red, _Ogre and 1952ssr. Thank you all for your inspirational comments.

I forgot to add last night that the diff housing (Holden Crewman / Borg Warner) that I had bought from a fellow on eBay had turned up with one of the axle tubes actually slipping out of the centre housing. This was unknown to me at the time of purchase and hence nessecitated corrective surgery to rectify the fault. The tubes are held in place via a press fit and three factory plug welds, all of which had let go! This had allowed the tube to 'walk' out of the housing. Hell of a way to increase track width if you ask me. Anyway, this didn't suit so I clamped my jig into it and welded up both sides good and proper. Shouldn't have any future trouble with that from now on. Forgot to take photos of that though, so will post some in the near future.

Regards,

Trently.
