And then I made a pair of boxing plates and welded them in. (For some reason this is the only picture I took)

The next big hurdle was permanently welding the suspension brackets to the rear end housing.

Here you can see how I shortened the back brace to clear the coil overs.

With all the brackets welded on, I made a trip to Moser and had them weld on the Baer floater ends and cut axles for me.

I also picked up some gear oil and axle seals.

With everything welded, I put the housing back in to see how it all fits.
