[QUOTE="hatchke, post: 16781343, member: 185172"] Some minor updates: - Had a huge debacle with the rear-end and axle situation. The axles that are used with the spool are about an inch too sort for when used with a 35-spline rear differential like my Strange S-trac. - No big deal I thought, ordered some new axles, c-clip eliminators, reluctor wheels and studs all pressed in for my rear diff. Not cheap, but also no alternatives so dropped ~780 on axles shipped. - Got them in and they're the same axles I had in the spool lol. - Called Strange and after a lot of back and forth, the correct length units should have arrived Tuesday and I am imagining having the car back tomorrow. Had the TOB replaced at the same time with the FRPP piece since whatever was used prior was never adjusted correctly and really trashed that bearing. Paired that with a firewall adjuster and an aluminum quadrant. The main thing I had it in the shop for anyway was to get subframe connectors welded in from MM, which i'm pretty excited for. Hopefully some pics to tomorrow here soon. I'm pretty salty about having to use a shop for part of the work, but the garage progress is still moving SO slow. I'll have to post up some pics of that front as well. [/QUOTE]
