Looking for a rearend rebuilder in Los Angeles area
 

I have a rear-end with a Halibrand center section and a Mitchell Overdrive in a basket. I'm looking for some to correctly assemble and set it up. :confused:

That stuff is junk - call me I'll dispose of it properly......
Is the Mitchell apart also? If so I'd get Mitchell to put it back together.
If the rear was all together at one point it's simple assembly. If you don't have all the pieces some others can be modified to fit.
Here is a Halibrand manual if you don't have one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/251330935830
This is a good - but old - writeup on the HAMB - https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...hanges.148241/
You might want to post there too as someone may know a guy in your area.

Thanks for the link on the manual.
The Mitchell IS NIB. The rest of it has been gathered from swap meets ETC. All new bearings and races.
Simply looking for the person with the knowledge to put it together correctly.

Al Zannino in Hemet does a great job on transmission and rear ends, including QC's. [email protected].
