    Rear ended moving around, need some tips.

    You know that's a great idea, can't believe I didn't think of that haha It might be a little difficult to hunt down leaf spring bolt with the correct size. Might be forced to get one of those spacers. I wish I could have gone 8 3/4. But it's hard to beat a good condition 8.8 for $75 from the...

    Rear ended moving around, need some tips.

    So I swapped an explorer 8.8 into my 64 barracuda. Install went well and all that but, I noticed that my aftermarket spring perches that I bought on eBay have a bigger hole on the perch, than the size of the leaf spring centering pin. So upon test driving the rear end the other day, when I...

    Well unfortunately still busted. I replaced the crank and cam sensors and nothing, still running the same. Ran a compression test and all cylinders are just around 180psi. It's weird but I smell blow by, don't know why. It seems to kinda have a loss of power as well.

    Wow man that's crazy, your a genius! I'll have to give it a try and hope that does the trick. Which would explain why it was working just fine and then it happened out of the blue. I'm sure when they rebuild this stuff they probably didn't replace the sensors with new ones.

    Anybody know of a late model Dodge forum? Mines busted.

    My daily is an 02 Dodge Stratus. It's currently having some issues that make it non driveable. I was on my way to work and 15 min later at a light the car began to bog down (kinda like an old car with a carb). So I put the car in neutral and gave it gas to keep going. The car stayed on, as...

    How to align rear end after 8.8 swap

    Okay i think I'm starting to grasp the concept. So use the measurement I got up front, and stretch the string to the rear. Measure the rear frame rails and find the exact point I found up front so I know where to locate my string from up front. Measure axle flange to axle flange and find...

    How to align rear end after 8.8 swap

    Awesome thanks so much for the response! I seem to be a little confused... I apologize for that. 1) "backing plate meets the axle" I'm a little confused by as to what is the backing plate? 2)If I stretch a rope from the front to the rear, I imagine I run the chance of getting the measurement...

    How to align rear end after 8.8 swap

    I swapped out the old rear end out of my 64 barracuda for an 8.8 out of a 2001 explorer (28 spline, 3:73, Limited-slip). How do I go about making sure its aligned with the car so I can weld it to the new perches? Do I have to take it in to the alignment shop and have them do it? **other...

    How to set up a/c and heat

    Thanks for the responses, I'll post some more photos of it soon. There are 2 more inlets on the opposite side. Quality wise I'm not 100% sure, as long as I can get some good use out of it I'm okay with it. Living in SD I'm only gonna use it in the summer really. Okay now I seem to have a...

    How to set up a/c and heat

    I bought a heat and AC kit off of eBay. I know those aren't the best but it was all I can afford at the time. (My cuda didn't have a heater/AC box) I'm a little confused on how to wire it for heat, it came with 2 knobs, Temp (hi-low) and Air (1234). It did not come with a heat knob or...
