oh no, is this 8.75 housing too bad?

Trying to find the good in a bad situation. The guy who sold me the stuff thinks he found a set of the proper backing plates, and he's shipping them out. They won't get here in time for any of this rushing around trying to get the car together to have been worth it, but it's something. I would certainly rather not pay what most people are proud enough to want for them. Everyone has been really helpful with all of your suggestions and assistance while I learn the hard way all about the rear swap. I thought I paid a lot of money not to have to learn right now, but sometimes you pay for your lessons.


That's the thing about screwing with cars. If you start real young, you can probably figure most of the angles and master all of the issues that pop, up on the fly...just in time to drop dead of old age.
