BDR?

Sorry bdr, No, I didn't know that. I knew the ring gears got thicker as they got numerically higher but I didn't know the overall diamter changed. Huh? If I had known that I wouldn't have sold it to...

Anyone want the whole axle I have. 31 spline shafts, 2.97 gears, case is open, drum brakes, shaved housing?

Or does anyone need any Moser big bearing ends?

Send me a pm if so.

No, not a good deal for just the third. If it was the entire axle it would be a good deal, but not for me sense it hasn't been narrowed.

yah i think so too. If it was the entire axle, i would still have the problem of it being too wide.

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...

edit: I plated it with 3/8". With this done the 9" will have 0.5" better ground clearance than a d-30!

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...

I think this will work. . .

i finished the shave, I'll get some pics up in a minute

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?

I'm only using the case to brace the housing while welding the truss and to check for clearance while shaving it. Other than that I don't need it. I'll sell you everything but the housing for $75?

I measure the amc 20 the drivers side is 25" and the pass. is 26.5". So total length is 51.5" from flange to flange. I'm going to make the 9" the same dimensions.

I have wired wheeled the entire...

I was mistaken I looked again, and mine does taper down about 3" in from the tube ends? I'm not quite sure what to do about that. Over all length is 60 3/4" from flange to flange.

Not an immediate build, i'll finish it over the next year or so. I want to run 37s after the 35s wear. I went to awesome auto for a np-435, found only one and didn't like the wear I saw on the gears....

Glad you made this thread. I started my 9" build today too.
