As time goes on racing puts a strain on parts sometimes parts break. First to go were the clutch pack on the rear end, after taking off the rear cover things didn't look too nice

Here is the stock 10 bolt housing all cleaned out from all the broken clutches

A friend and I put the posi back together, by the way those are Richmond 4.56 gears in there

Next the Turbo 400's case cracked, the TCI Transbrake really put the tranny to the test

After finding another turbo 400 case all internalls were transfered to the new case. Originall tranny was built by API Transmissions out in Mississauga Canada. There is also a 10 inch 4000 stall converter also by API

The tranny was finally assembled and ready to be put back in my truck

Looks like I'll be looking for a new block. I burnt a groove between number 3 and 5 cylinders (July 1, 2005)

Very nice details, and nice truck. I do have a question for you though. How much did you drop the front and the rear, and how did you do the drop. I have a 1990, that looks similar to yours. I cant wait to get started. Once again...nice truck, keep up the good work.
