Got my fishy plates all welded up and the rear springs hung. Plus some new parts for me to play with.

have you decided on a rear end yet? I spotted a 14 bolt and what I think was a dana 70 in a pick-n-pull by my house.

I'm open to another 14 bolt or a Dana 70 depending on price. I've found a couple 14 bolts but the axle tubes are just as pitted as mine. And the 70's I've found have either been weird widths or limited to real low (numerically) gear ratios.

Do these count as one uping and spiting Will? Or do I really need to get 43's?

I checked on prices at that junkyard and they had both listed for $150 plus core i think was $15. I double checked the axle I thought was a dana 70 was actually a older dana 60 with more ribs on the housing.
