12:05 Garage- ’70 Duster build

So it looks like maybe the best option is an '05+ 8.8 as they went to 31 splines after that.

I can get one locally for $750 complete, but with a 2.73 gear ratio. So after narrowing it, buying custom axles and getting it re-geared to a 3.55, is it is still the better deal?
