I would highly recommend a DTE tranny/dif brace as part of your fix.

yeah I had to get it with the rig, not worth the hassle of trying to get it on a flatbed just so the driver could rip the front fascia off

The gearbox looks like the way to go let me know about the cast diff case as well, CF torque tube and the exedy twin.... I think it will be rocksolid after this.

Thanks again for your time Louis

You dont need a DTE brace, you need the brace I have, PM me for details. I built my rear end when I BEFORE i had to deal with this. I tore the 4th out of the transmission so I had a mcleod twin put in w/ aluminum fly, and a viper t56 with hardened output shaft and a Meyers Rear/Trans Brace. It's bullet proof now. Launched at 4500rpm on ET streets at the track a few times, rock solid.

Nice Truck and Trailer though.

OH... and what NORMALLY gets hauled around in that trailer?!
