Cool beans, thanks much!

I have another question though, what about the jounce bumpers on the front of the axle (HO52)? There are none on the 14 bolt. Should I cut them off of the Eaton and reweld them on the 14 bolt, or is there a source for new ones? They are rubber triangle looking things that mount to metal tabs on the front of the Eaton axle.
