That is a very nice looking piece. Good price too. Do you have the capabilities to make it a bolt on combo? jig welded leaf pads and/or for control arms?

Too bad i recently bought a bare 9" currie housing.

Also the link in your signiture doesn't work for me.

We do have the those options available. We can weld on the perches for any width and degree for a variety of applications.

Here is a build of a notch back with a fiberglass leaf setup.

Were working on the link mounts right now, our new chassis will have the link setups.


Thanks for the heads up on the signature. I will fix that right now.

Good timing, what would a full floating axle complete with hubs and axles cost? 5x4.5 BP, not sure what the width will need to be yet.

The links at the bottom of your page for the housing packages and axle ends do not work

The setup your referring to is our Stage Two package. This includes the housing, hubs, snouts welded in, filler welded in, drain welded in, and axles with drive plates. I will have more information up tonight or tomorrow.

31 spline FF MIG setups start at 1480
31 spline FF TIG setups start at 2080

Im working on the site tonight, thanks for the heads up. Good thing we build cars and not websites....:)

Boy those are some nice looking housings. Maybe one day down the road I'll need one and now I'll know where to look!

Here are some pics of the 31 Spline Full Floating snouts welded into a GMR housing.

TIG, again we use a double weave pass with stainless rod on the 4130 housing.

MIG, high heat and .035 ER70S wire make for a great weld.

Do you have additional pictures of your 3 Link set up shown on the mustang? What 3rd link bracket are you using (single hole, double, etc. for adjustment)? Can this housing be purchased with a custom housing width, customer specified center to center on the LCA shock mounts, and a pinion offset with the 3rd link mount welded for a Johnny type joint. Also if available, what width of joint do the LCAs accept?

Nice looking product. I'd be looking at a non floater standard type MIG housing.

Thanks, Wes

Wes,

I do not have any more pics of that setup, I lost most of the images when our main computer crashed. I do however have the design files still. The upper 3 link mount is a dual bolt hole setup for a 3/4" on 1/2" bore heim. The lowers have multiple bolt holes for adjustment, with 3/4" on 5/8" bore heim.

All the housings are made to order, so a specific width is not a problem. We offer them online in many different widths or you can call the shop and order a specific number that is not listed.

If you are looking for something more custom, we can certainly do that. We are a full fabrication facility so custom items are not a problem, you just need to place the order by giving us a call. From the pinion offset to the custom link mounts we can build it to your specs.

thanks,
Jason

Jason,
Thanks for the quick reply. The does open up some nice options for a 3-link. This is a street car so I'm leaning towards a rebuildable type Johnny /Spohn/Ballistic type joint.

Thanks, Wes
