We had one at 900 at the wheel on one We then decided to run a solid axle as the axles kept breaking! Diff survived though and to the best of my knowledge is still in working order to this day.

Almost finished up. Still have to get the GM swap pan in for final rack placement, but it is looking quite good. All made out of 1 5/8" chromoly.

Good luck on the project. I am doing a conversion on my 05 Subaru Legacy. There is some work to be done but it can be fabricated. For my use I selected the GTO Oil pan as it was the best fitting. I am waiting on some steel tube to come in so that I can finish the modified subframe. Would love to see pictures of your projects
