Well the 12 bolt took a dump off the line hanging a right. Quite a ride!
I discovered the housing were the tubes are slid into split the case. Yes, they were tig welded but I didnt have any support to the outer ends. I understand once you get to this point, you need to start looking at a stronger rear.
Does anyone use a 12 bolt, 60fting in the 1.30s with any long term success? If so, what modifacations have you made.
How about 4130 tubes with both ends welded to the housing and triangular support bars?
