Why not just weld the tubes to the housing. Since the housing is cast steel, it welds fine. Joe(B) Speaking of technical solutions, I need to take a picture of my method for keeping the axle tubes fr

My understanding is that using ARP fasteners you have 2 things working for you that cause different settings. 1. The fasteners are stronger and therefore will take higher torque settings. 2. It is hi

Maybe it is that the first bearings to be starved of oil are the # 2s, since they are closest to the pump. If the pump sucks and pumps air, it would show up at the closest bearings. Joe(B) It seems t
