Well, I picked up the rear end and things kind of snowballed from there. Initially I just planned on taking it apart, checking things out and cleaning it up. A friend came thru with a 28 spline Posi that needed some work and I found a set of 2.75 gears off of E Bay that for the price seemed like a better deal than spending a day at the wrecking yard taking rear ends apart.
Soooo…The Posi was rebuilt, the brake drums had plenty of life left and they were turned, new wheel cylinders, brakes and hardware kits installed. I picked up a G Body bracket kit from E Bay along with a pair of Lakewood adjustable upper control arms.
I spent the weekend putting everything together and I now have a G Body 9”.I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....
