Jerry;
I would not worry about breaking a Corvair rear axle; the u- joints are far more likely to break. If the axle fails (very unlikely) it is probably just going to twist rather than suddenly fail catastrophically.

These are Spicers, heavy duty, I think they are forged, no zerk fitting, external c clip, I am going with these.
They are part number 5-1310X

New starter has a 4-1 reduction for higher torque.
Everywhere possible get weight off the fat end of the car.

Looks good Jerry! What do you have holding the frame up suspended?

It's on jackstands. There are two more now in the back since it is more rear heavy now.

In the interest of promoting safety, don't do it the way I just did it, put the extra stands under the rear first, then put in the engine and trans. wink

My camera does not like the lighting. Poor picture quality. The halfshafts and lower dog bone bars are in. With the lighting turned up the silver and chrome looks grey.
