TR3 help; removing guts from Diff. casing

["Andy Dixon" <amdixon@erols.com>]

For those of you that have done this.
How did you make a spreader, what size and where did you get the stock (I
have some 3/8" but somehow I don't think it's going to be heavy enough),
will a normal turnbuckle work as long as it's large enough, etc?
As I'm moving the guts from one casing to another should I keep the bearing
caps with the bearing or with the case?
What else am I letting myself in for?
TIA,
Andy
