I would like to upgrade to a D44 front and a large bearing 9" rear.
So what does it involve to cut down full size axles to the EB width? Is that something local machine shops do or is it something that can be done at home with a good welder and someway of aliening things?
Does a person shorten the right side or left? And how is it done grinding off the weld at the center section I assume?
And then I suppose after the axle housing has been shortened I would buy a new axles for the shortened side, or of course I could buy a complete set of 31 splines?
