they were rediculously cheap
Humor me, but, I assume I need the new case to use the alignment pucks and rod. Do the pucks just take the place of the carrier bearings?
Ya, the pucks will replace your carrier bearings. To use Creighton's jig you'll either have to use the new case with 3.25" OD carrier bearings (assuming that's what you're getting) or you (we) will have to get a set of pucks made for the small bearing case that came with our axles. Just for planning...you may want to measure your carrier bearing race OD. There were two sizes stock - 2.892" and 3.063".
i finished the shave, I'll get some pics up in a minute

wait i just looked at this thread
ryan-
giving up on the other axles already? why? have you even broken anything yet? or anything that is not free to replace?
kinda, I'm confortable running 35s on it, but the future looks like 37s, and the 9" will be more than up to the task. Also, if i'm going to change over anyways i'd rather not blow the amc 20 up and not be able to sell it for anything. If i keep it in nice shape than I can recoup half the price of building the 9".
Sounds like what you're wanting to build...

if you haven't ordered parts that it a deal, you will spend almost that much on the parts, only about $350 more
I don't think so, its not the right width. So I would still have to chop it, get new ends, and custom shafts. Thats $1600-$1700 + shipping when its all done. I can do the whole thing myself for $1400.
These are the parts I was thinking. They might not be as high quality as moser but there still a d*ck load strong.

Sounds like it's just the 3rd member.
If you're not going to go moser stuff, go talk to Jonathon at Eaker Performance. He sells a lot of 9" stuff and can get you everything you need.
