Great pics. Those axles look beautiful. I hoping that after things calm down here a bit i can start collecting stuff for a 3.0l swap that will eventually become turbo charged. But right now im trying to find a really good kinda step by step on what has to be done to drop a 3.0L in.

Sheesh..... Next time you do some upgrades why dont you spend some money and get the good stuff. j/k Looks real nice man. Im sure it took alot of thought not to mention $$ for your setup. Look forward to more pics. That Intake Manifold looks kind of different in the pic you provided. Hopefully the one you get has better welds.

Hmm, asymmetric bearings. Interesting...I wonder why they did that.
Can you see any numbering on the bearings at all, letters? Aslo please tell me the inside bore diameter (use calipers). I want to see if I can find some info about those.
What do you mean by asymmetric?

Just got some information from dss about the axles and they are shot peened to make the inner tripod stronger. if this for some reason does not work i can send my lsd in and get the spline modified to fit a bigger shaft.

Holy hell.  Have you totaled everything up yet to see what you are spending on the whole ordeal? Seems as if you've got it all figured out though. Well done indeed. I know of more than a few past critics who seem to now have no comment.
