      The 8.5 is just a stock one that was sitting outside for a good while so it is pretty much just a rusty housing.

      Plans are to bring it into the shop...dissassemble...clean...weld tubes...weld on the big ford axle ends...have someone build it with the 30 spline axles and tru-trac...3.73 gears...and a 1350 yolk (is 1350 right?)...then install the Baer SS4 brakes.
