Als 70 Formula

  • Then All did not come by when I called.  I was somewhat pissed off.  I called him several times.  Still a no show.  No call, no reason, no appology.  I would call and he would not answer.

  • So I sell his first differential to another good customer for his car.  I fret the sale not one bit.  Then Al calls one day about a month later asking if he can come by and pick up his diff that day.  Ups.  I had to tell him to come by in a week and it...

  • I felt kinda bad about the whole process so I made his next one out of a 64 GTO Housing.  It would even be better than his first one.  It would be stronger and also once again fresh and ready to go.

  • Of course they are not in the way and who will know unless you run them over.  That is the key anyway.  I think the GTO Chevelle type of Diffs are stronger than the Firebird F Body styles anyway.

  • Here are the perches ready to be welded on to the other Diff Housing.  They just have to be exact to work.  They need to be removed from the donar housing and the job has to be done just so.

  • The donor housing has to be cleaned to a knat's ass.  It has to have a certain amount of bend put into the tubes so that when you weld on the perches the tubes will distort to within .010 or the axle bearings will eat the axles.
