    Addressing the Underside Visual Advice

    That's what I would think would be the cleanest and complete option but not sure I can bring myself to go that far, I'll consider it, Thanks Batman, I respect your choice.

    Addressing the Underside Visual Advice

    That makes perfectly good sense as to what I am seeing. I was wondering why I see gray primer with original red overspray on both the bottom and the inside. Couldn't figure how that got there in those layers, now I know. Thank you for the explanation on the undercoat to, also makes sense on the...

    Addressing the Underside Visual Advice

    Went down to the shop today to clean up a bit and sat down to ponder addressing the underside of my 71 Demon (currently stripped down and on the rotisserie with the underside facing me). The car was originally a red and has been repainted at some time in it's life. She is going back yellow as my...

    7.25 and 8.25 axle shaft interchange?

    Okay, asking for help here on this rear. I have posted for used 8.25 27 spline axles, already have the housing, will buy new sure-grip, gear, and replace all the bearings. Cannot find any new, rebuilt, or used 8.25 27 spline axles. Soooo, since 29 spline are available, could I go with the 29...

    A body rear end width ?

    Do you have this same information for the 8.25 or are they the same for the 8 3/4? I'm trying to locate some used 27 spline 8.25 axles and would like to know the axle that may cross.

    Starting the recreation of my 72 Demon from High School - Hello

    Have purchased and stripped a 72 Demon, body on the rotisserie, 360 engine to build, and will be swapping out the 7.25 rear for a 8.25 ( have the housing). It will be a work of love or hate sometimes but will need your help I am sure. Right now could use some 8.25 axles to start as the donor...

    7.25 and 8.25 axle shaft interchange?

    I looked at those but I'm afraid the 8.25 axles are too bad. Looks like this one sat with no oil and plenty of moisture. There is not enough shaft surface left that is acceptable for the bearing and seal to run on to move the position anywhere. What makes them incompatible, is it size ...

    7.25 and 8.25 axle shaft interchange?

    I have a donor 8.25 rear that I will use to replace my 7.25. Problem is the donor 8.25 rear axles are pitted very badly on the bearing roller surface and will need replacing. Question: are the 7.25 axle shafts compatible with the 8.25 rear. I don't see any visual, they are both 27 spline if I...
