Thread missing? 8-3/4 housing end as welded for shortened housing...

I believe I was only running high 11s at the time. I was hitting it hard with a 4-speed no slip clutch though. I broke my share of stuff back in those days because of that.

Was looking in my notes for that info. In there I noted I was having a bit of difficulty getting axles in too. I didn't yet realize the housing was bent. Notes are cool. :)
I used to have a good memory but now I've got a notebook instead. It doesn't forget stuff like I do
