is it sad that i have long since stopped checking my own thread?

never did get any pictures of what i was looking for, but hopefully will when one poster comes back from out of country. that will tell me what i need to know.

Yes quite the rabbit trails. Most of your questions are answered in this thread. It's long and requires some digging. Maybe you've been through it already...

the questions i have are:

1. any pictures of it done this way? I'm concerned about clearance with my TTI 3 inch exhaust.

Lots of pics, not sure it the exhaust question is addressed though. I can give you the tube diameter if you like. Should be similar otherwise I think.

2. what have people done with the master and proportioning system to account for the rear discs?

I plan to use a master from a 4 wheel disc system and likely will add an adjustable prop valve.

3. how have you been hooking up the e-brake?

In the thread.

4. how quiet is it?

Quiet.

5. what have you done to hook that funky plate to our mopar drive shafts?

In the thread.

6. will my drive shaft need to be shortened?

In the thread I think.

7. what am i looking at as far as the hydraulics are concerned?

In the thread I think :)

8. anything I'm not thinking of?

Probably :mrgreen: (mounting of pinion snubber?)

Side note story:

I bought mine from a wrecker almost a year ago. Opened it up just the other day... what the???
This thing is open not posi!!!

I called them up and very politely explained. They are sending me a brand new posi carrier. Score!
