    Ok here is the deal. The cover needs to be off. All gears bearings and seal out, if the axle looks like the picture I can't do it. I will melt the seal when I bake it in the oven.
    Did you remove all the internals? I need an empty housing, meaning the tubes and center that is attached to the tubes only. If the cover and pinion is all still in place don't send it over it needs to be completely taken apart..
    Roger if you read this you will know what I need hopefully we are good.. Thanks Steve..

    Yep, the pic was just to show which one, but whats on its way to you is a totally empty housing only, with the tubes, and it's clean. The only thing I didn't remove which now I wonder about is the vent.

    That's the trouble with multitasking - you forget who what when how sometimes. I didn't look that close at what you gave me (inside the cardboard wrapper) so I forgot we were talking a 7.25" rear-end. These didn't have the red-oxide pumpkin. It was all black. Did you send over the back cover? Was it in there?

    When I drop it off Steve and I can look at it and remove anything that should be removed that wasn't. No worries.

    Sorry for the brain fart.

    No worries...but the pumpkin part does look like red oxide. (feel free to open the cardboard if you're curious.) I did not send the cover...I'll take care of that myself. Do you guys know where I can get replacement bolts and washers for the cover?

    Don, I got your parts cleaned today, and it plan on coating them tomorrow. I post up a few pics when done if you don't mind.
    Then we just need to figure out how to get them back to you.. I think we are going to have a tech day in the next weekend or so to put Gina's car back together so maybe Roger can shuttle them back for us in his new space shuttle car!!
    Anyway stay tuned they should look great.
