Custom Ford 9" Rear Build:

I'm building a 9" rear for a drag car and want to make sure I have all the parts here @ time of build. I know I'll need axle & pinion bearings, gaskets, and a solid crush sleeve. Here's what I have so far:

Housing
Tubes
Tube Ends
Axles
Studs
3rd Member Case
Pinion Support
Yoke
Spool
Gear Set
Ring gear bolts
Pinion Nut

Anything missing?

Solid spacer on pinion. If you can attempt to use two halves of a spacer with your shim(s) in the middle of the two halves. This will keep the shims from wearing down and opening up tolerances. Shim material is kinda weak. Seals?
