I did see the crack yes. It just looks kinda funny to me? The machinist was goint to take a better look at it today. I say it was a truck block due to the 4 bolt main caps and that is was still bolted to the front frame section when I boiught it, the frame had been torched out of the vehicle and it was a real heavy duty frame. Had king pins instead of ball joints. In the end, it's still just a guess on my part, but an educated guess I feel. I do not kow if it is made in Mexico or not. We will see what becomes of it.?
