Hmmmm, i guess that would explain my vibration coming from the rear and blown-shock-like-movement under hard accel!
by the way, how many pints of diff fluid does a 9 inch take? does 6 sound right?

with all the issues you had with that rear i suggest going to a 10 bolt and save up for a 12 bolt, and sell off that thing.
btw, i'll give you a temp 10 bolt and buy the 9 inch lol

That housing cannot be welded as it is.. It needs to be put in a jig and straightened before being welded back together...
