Took a break from the front axle and welded the rear truss together. I had to preheat it to get better penetration. It's going to be tacked in place for now. When I figure out the pinion angle I'll finish weld it in place.

Finally tackled the casting on the axle tube. I was really nervous about cutting the tube the entire time. But it worked out pretty well. I cut circumference as deep as I was willing with the band saw. Then ground out the slug welds and broke the casting into pieces and hammered them off. A little of the last bracket is left to clean off.

Started the rebuild. I found out the valve body is missing a few parts. The valve body oil tube and the tcc solenoid. I won't need those until it's ready for assembly. 1475637263286.jpg
