If you have a 1/2” pinion offset…How would you pull the measurements? That’s what I’m doing in Nova right now. My 4 link brackets are welded on from a 1/2” offset. Then one tube would be 1/2” longer than the other correct?
Yes a lathe must be used to shorten. Even using a dial indicator on the axle tube and brake flange. We don't butt weld. We press fit our axle ends before welding.
Sir, your work is impeccable You certainly are a journeyman in your field. .
Thank you!
Great video!! Definitely helps with narrowing your rear end!!! Thanks
Best explanation of how to on youtube, thanks

gave me some good ideas What about the center axle shaft how do you cut and reattach it?
O can you use cholder for backing plate instead of square one

Nice
Thanks Robert
Where do I get that pinion center line guage?
That one is from Chris Alstons Chassisworks. You can get them in many places though.
Nice video, Where I can find the alignment fixture including the spacers..?
There are many places to get the alignment fixture. I use one from Chris Alston Chassisworks, which I think is the best one available. Good luck! 👍
Great! Thanks for your quick response...
The tube and ends need to be chamfered. The weld is simply laying on top of the butt joint with zero penetration.
Paul Deahl The tubes and ends are both chamfered, then a TIG root pass is used followed by a TIG cap. Thanks though.

You guys still around? I'm in Nampa.
Yeah we're in Nampa now actually.
Is that a home made 8.75 Chrysler?
No. Fabricated housing that accepts a Ford 9" third member.
@@ardentindustries oh bad ass nonetheless, can you make an 8.75 ?
Lot of numbers not much showing
What would you like to see?
I don't think that's correct as you have moved the centres weight towards the right by 2.5 inches 🤔
Very painful video to watch. If you’re into taking the long extended way to do things this video is for you.
