Lots of camper shells are made with side windows that tip up. Think you could adapt one of those? They would have hindges, and latches already instaled, also gas props to hold them up.

It will probably stick to your condom alright with no prep at all!

Seems we are condeming the steering box without even checking tre's and ball joints. I would be takeing a hard look at those also. The tre at the pitman arm seems to be the quickest to go away and will cause lots of "free play" in the steering. I think that may cure your death wobble at the same...

If you decide to throw it away, throw it my way,,,,,,,,,I'll pay the frieght. LOL

A few of the big block hi perf cars had 31 splines also. Look for the "N" cast in the carrer to build a bulit proof rear end. Those are very hard to find but if your running big hp very worth haveing. Good luck with it.
