Hey Jim and Jim!

Thanks for the info on the astro van tail housing, there are just so many T5 options, it was a very versatile transmission, wow always something new to learn.

And as always thanks for the great info Jim, I am just glad you are not bragging about how long your drive shaft is :-)

I was looking at my available parts in the shop and trying to decide what to go with.
I need to get an out put yoke for the transmission and I have 2 options for the differential yoke end of things 1310 series joints or 1330 series.
I also have the ends off a 3 inch driveshaft assembly but I have not tried removing the yokes yet, I was thinking I would do it in the old lathe but if it's too much of a fight or just plain ole' ugly I will order some new ones in 2 1/2 size most likely in the 1310 size joints. The 3 inch 1330 stuff just looks like it belongs to a truck, no that you can really see it in the end. Hmmmmm

Oh ya, let me know when you are ready, you are right, no big rush I am going to work on the pedal box next then I could go back to those chassis type things or I might mock up / build my foot boxes. As I need them to fit up some of the tubes and well then...lets just say there is always lots to do...
I am just trying to think a couple of steps ahead is all :-)
