            Ford style, yes. But if I used actual Ford pieces it would break.

                I was just curious as I thought you said you got the third member from them.. It just looks different from what I have.. But then again I am only using the stock FORD 8.8 stuff besides the yoke, axles and carrier...lol

                      The third member is Moser, but it is the exact same casting as the Mark Williams as I was told my the company I bought it from. The pinion yoke has a tag on it, I'll check it tonite to see what brand it was.

                        I thought I heard you say it was a MW third and Moser axles, I guess I heard you wrong. It probally is a Moser yoke as they do offer one for the 8.8. When you break that stuff you can use some of my factory 8.8 stuff if you want..:icon_rendeer:

                                      Alum panels for the floor, I'll try to use the stock plastic stuff for around the sides.

                                        Looks like you're starting to really kick some butt on that project. Do I spy some non-cardboard tubs there?

                                        One time...

                                          Not one, but TWO non-cardboard tubs now reside out back.
