67/68/69 cuda dilemma
It's all good DartOS , we will clean up and reuse the springs that are there. Can always be changed later. Plus I have that 31 spline 8.8 disc brake rear going under it. I feel I am better off with that compared to the 8.75 anyways. Replacement parts will be easier and waaaay cheaper to get for it compared to an 8.75. I'm just glad those framerail flanges werent cut off. Only bent over and needing minor patch repairing. Today I will make more progress removing the old transition pan.
At this point I am weighing my options on the trunk floor as well. The one in the pic below is made in USA and $258 shipped to my doorstep. I figure since I am doing quarter panel replacement along with the wheel houses and everything else, I can cut the side off one of the quarters, and install it from the side as one piece. The reason I am shying away from the AMD one is it's not only double the price, but I already have a good gas tank / spare tire bracket, can drill the drain holes myself, and the biggie, is the AMD one the fuel filler hole is shaped for a 1970 up trunk. Would prefer it to be blank and I will cut the fuel filler hole how I need it to be for a 69.
