Andy,I mentioned on one of the posts way back when (Jeez,this is an old thread now!) how I kept the pinion from spinning while crushing the crush sleeve. This is what I was referring to. Just a piece of stock with 2 holes drilled in it,and bolted to the yoke. Works great! I just got my rear back from having the axle tubes welded to the center section,so I'm JUST NOW doing final assembly! So I took a pic.
I would think this would work fine for those crazy enough to try this with the rear in the car too.
