Oh lol, best of luck!
edit: I guess so, wouldn't need all of it in a race truck! Lol. Could post it on the classified here. Could get a hit. I'm sure you can sell a full set, no rips or tears for a few hundred easily...

So went and got this today! 2002 Z06 rear end, torque tube, bellhousing and 6 speed manual transmission. Also got a junk block so I can start mocking everything up. Now starting to save for all the metal I am going to need to build a tube chassis. Still looking into if I want to do tube all the way through or build a 2x4 frame.

After picking up my rear end last weekend I started looking into tube chassis vs building a 2x4 frame. I do think the frame would be quicker and easier but I am building this Blazer to learn the ins and outs of building tube chassis. A friend wants me to build him a cage for his drag Honda and we started talking about tube vs frame and first off tube would be completely bad ***, but it also would be a good challenge and help me learn more than 2x4. So I started looking into full RR tube setups and put the 2x4 out of my mind. In turn when I was doing some reading I am considering doing https://rick486.wixsite.com/dobbertinperformance again. He sells a kit for tube chassis and it would take all the guess work out of my suspension and make it completely bolt in and easier to maintenance. I am slowly learning about suspension and all the angels beyond just collision at work but it is starting to confuse me a little. Worried I would get it all welded in and be off just enough to handle horribly or pre mature wear on parts.
