Thanks for the feedback! That's a good point, also will be adding more captions in future videos.

Exactly, thanks for the comment!

So glad you enjoyed, thanks for the support

Awesome! Thanks for commenting

Me neither and I work pretty much 6 days a week with 3" and 5" grinders for the last 30 years. No gard and rarely safety goggles and I never had a face shield. On the other hand a friend of mine has a beard now that he got half of a 5" wheel stuck in his lower jaw.

Thankfully it missed his eye.

Thank you! Thats very helpful

Keep watching we have a lot of projects and this channel is fairly new. We are trying to show everything we work on

Thank you!

The weld look really good but It doesn't matter to me because I wouldn't do it. I sure wouldnt trust anyone butt welding the axle tube of a rear end. Im with you on that one!!

@hitlow1985 in my point of view it should have been drilled out at the diff side where the factory welded it. And cut down, But if one is to butt weld an axle tube the outside should have all the mounts shaved off and sleeved from the outside as not to lose oil flow to the bearings and new mounts made to be welded to the sleeve. As if the sleeve is done in 2 pieces and throughly welded, and would make a great mounting point for either leafspring or a 4 link or even latterbars. As you could weld the sleeve full length .

I love the feedback and opinions! I agree with you guys on the sleeve, it could be a great mounting point. This is the way I did this one, and i'm fully confident in the welds. We do structural steel and get our welds x-rayed frequently. Definitely more than one way to skin a cat

@LocoCustoms glad to hear you x-rayed it., you know the dimples on each side of the diff, that's actually the main weld at the factory. There is another one on the opposite side of it as well, I found if you drill those out, the axle tube can be heated and removed, then you just cutdown the tube on that end. In the 1990's currie axle showed me how they did it. Back when they used to buy the axle housings at the salvage yards., now they just make the whole thing. But the principle still works on hotrodding.

@@LocoCustoms You guy got the right idea with with leveling it with angle iron and making the mark to line it up. I went to school to learn how to do welding but it was auto body but when I learned how to weld on a frame I watch a bunch of videos and they explain why they cut the patch the way they did and I did my first frame repair. I had very little exprience welding frame steel but have welding a bunch of times over a 20 year period. I wouldnt doubt an exprienced welder but it's a matter of welding it to last a long time. For example welding in a angled cut peice of 1/8" steel on a frame that crack at a weak point,rather than just welding the crack you can patch it so that spot is not gonna crack again. Just like anything elese we are always learning and finding out what work best,the more info we can gather to better off our work will be.

Thank you David! 38' Chevy That's awesome! I'll check tomorrow and get back to you. Thanks again for the support on the video

Call Dutchman Axels, they will send you a build sheet for your axels. Thanks for the comment!

Thank you and thanks for subscribing! The grinding wheels were 45 and 80 grit

⁠@@LocoCustomsGreat, you got it! Thank you. Harbor Freight supply, or from somewhere else?

Las Vegas and Pahrump, Nv

Shorten rear differential 🤙

Yep, those will work!

Just put out 2 new videos on the 1929 model a!

@@LocoCustoms irei assistir agora.

Yep, That'll do except this one is lowrider style

Not always an option depending on the wheel choice.

@@lethargicmotorsport2025 , it was every day junk 10 bolt , they come in different lengths already , no modifications needed , Just a waste of time and money !

@@jimthomas1989took less than an hour used stuff I already had and is exactly what I needed

⁠@@lethargicmotorsport2025exactly! Thank you, you get it. Why would I want to have to put a certain wheel and there and be stuck with that one wheel

@@LocoCustoms , you just getting to answer a question that I n asked over 4 months ago ? Great response time , I didn't give a $H1T then and I don't give a $H1T now !

Call Dutchman Axels, they will send you a build sheet for your axels. Thanks for the comment!

Hey brother I'm getting ready to send my axles to dutchman for cut/respline. I have a question what is the tolerance and the measurement . Would a 1/16 be a problem?

@@IsaiasMoreno. The best thing to do is call Dutchman, they will tell you everything. I hope that helps, I use them all the time and never had any problems. Good luck!
