Did some driving yesterday.. All went well but I am going to make a few changes before really turning it loose. Brought it around and raised things off Burnouts.. Yes!

Just thought I should point something out... I discovered over the weekend that 15 Rallyes with 4.25 back spacing will not clear the caliper. I'm not even sure that a 4" BS Rallye would clear. I put a few washers on the studs just to see, probably 1/4" worth, and it was still hitting. Open to...

5.7 / 8HP70

Rear end in, filled, brakes bled, driveshaft in and wheels borrowed from Hoopty.. Looking goofy lol. Good enough for a test drive tomorrow tho. Just need make sure fluids are topped off.

In case anyone wonders... Mopar 15x6.5 Rallyes with 4.25 bs will not work on an 8.8. Calipers hit HARD! ****...

2009 5.7 Jeep manifolds... or headers 73 Scamp 5.7 Swap

I'm running the factory AC in my 69 with the 6.4... I pulled vacuum a few weeks ago and I think I'm in good shape. I grabbed an aftermarket condenser with built dryer off Amazon and new evap valve, binary switch some special fittings off Cold Hose. Buddy of mine has a hydraulic shop and I got...

I do too but I think it's because I'm use to them being on there

I'd try it lol.. Fronts are SBP and are BBP tho

Stopped and picked wheels and then rear end today. Axles fit the wheels just fine. Need to decide which center caps I like better tho... I have an unmatched set and I don't like that.

Got it figured out.. The axles fit perfect. Thanks guys

Boom... Thanks Pat

I know the guy personally and there is no reason for him to lie.. He's pretty knowledgeable. I'll stop and look at them this evening but I'm still not seeing it
