hey guys i need something to do this winter, so since my axle seals are starting to leak and possibly more hp in the near future id like to build my rear. first off id like to say i dont know an effin thing about building them but maybe i could figure it out. basically all i wanna know is what is all involved in switching over to 31 spline and if there would be recommendations or tips on making it very solid, because i plan on launching this mother at 5k. if i dont think i can do this then ill take it somewhere

Just buy a full fab 9". That will fix it all.

I think you need a new whole new diff, might be able to re-use the gears, axles, and seals, do bearings while your in there. IMO

ill probly bump my gears up to 3.73 or 3.90

Axles, diff, ring and pinion, install kit, axle bearings and seals, fluid, diff cover.

Then get your axle tubes and torque boxes welded. Once that is all done enjoy dump the clutch at 5000+ rpm.

And no need for a 9" rearend, 31 spline will probably be more than enough for your car.

this sounds like its gonna be a pita

Yes I would not recommend you doing the install unless you have someone there to help you, have a good background in turning a wrench and are good at figuring out how things work.

lmao....what could you possibly need a built rear for Kugzy? Are you planning on a winter build? And don't lie that you are ditching the 3.55 COBRAgears on your car...we all know you won't let go of those!

i did my whole motor by myself.. i never got involved in builder a rear tho, it just sounds like a pain, im sure i could do it tho

purp- your such a dingleberry lol
