How I got my rear in a sling again, sorta

Having to ship the rear to California is an issue, the rear is a real serious piece of metal. I could not see cardboard so I made a plywood box to hold the rear for its trip.

Using 3/4 ply I added a double bottom, and blocks to support the case with a top support to grab the snout. Hope you dont have to do this, Ill keep you informed. Woody

I took the easy way out I suppose using expanding spray foam and a cardboard box. Worked like a charm.

Mike R (RIP) shipped the diff I bought from him to me in a cooler! It worked great, even had a handle! I shipped that diff to Unitrax, and they shipped it back to me, all in that cooler!
