krissly1, check out how I did my rearend swap. Making a jig was the best thing to do; that way everything is assured to be the same as the original.
Rear End Rebuild Just like Truckedup said, be careful of the welding. I had someone TIG the brackets on for me, but if you decide to weld it yourself, make sure it is in the jig nice and tight. You shouldn't have any warpage problems if you do that, and take it slow, only welding about an inch at a time and alternating sides of the bracket between welds.
