For the "show guys" I can also polish the housing.

I can only imagine the amount of work it takes to build something from scratch like this.
Hope everything works out,....and like dude said, please keep the info coming,...as I have friends in need of some muscle.

If you are refering to the stub shaft bearings. They are also billet pieces with 2 bearings per shaft. They bolt on to the housing and are also supported by the carrier with another bearing. 3 bearings should be plenty strong enough.

The custom Bogart 18"x3.5"s and 18"x10"s should be here in about 3 weeks. I think the V is gonna hooks with the 28x10.5 ET drags for sure. It'll be the first V carrying the front tires!!!!

I know you said nothing stock is to be used but I'm kinda slow... 
How about that rubber bushing on the top of the rear diff that annoyingly wears out after only 10,000 miles and causes all the clunking...will that also be a thing of the past?
Either way, that looks awesome. Once these are available I will no longer have an excuse not to mod the V the way it deserves.
The wife can't wait.
