14 bolt is superior to D70. A d70 is d80 outer with a d60 inner. Pinion bearing support on the Corp 14 is very strong d70s are known to have pinion failure. D80 is king, rated higher than the new AAM 14.

LT there is a guy on eBay that makes big red knobs that he 3D prints for the release on the harbor freight presses, you just got to know what type of “t” you have one has a roll pin amd the other is solid. They are cheap and mine has held up great.... it just saves the extra step of grabbing pliers to release the jack. Hope this helps

Just asking you to make it easier to follow an individual build.

The shocks are staggered like GM. The spring pads might be different, but maybe you should look for one in the south. Hardly any rust.😎

Is there any risk of warping the axle tubes while welding to the housing?
@astrosafarimike3 жыл бұрын
Can you explain the process of mig welding the tubes to the diff housing? Did you pre and post heat? I’m getting ready to do this on an 8.8.
@geoffmooregm3 жыл бұрын
It won't hurt. If you don't have one, get a Tiger Torch (Sometimes called a weed burner) for preheat. It will cast a large hot spot and preheat that housing in no time. 250°F will be plenty. If you don't have any means of measuring the temperature just drip some water (droplets) on it. When it boils your over 212°F. Its wise to check 3" each side of the weld centerline. That axle tube is a little on the thin side. If you can stand it up vertical and weld 1/4 of the distance around the tube, stop, then quickly weld 1/4 of the tube directly across from the first spot. Check your preheat again and finish the weld.
