8 3/4 for 73 dart swinger

Well, yea, but if you're taking that "vintage" center, fixing any issues, jigging it, and installing new billet ends and correctly installed perches, it might as well be new. And for that price, it's a damn sight better than buying an untouched 40+ year old unit that needs all the same treatment and is the same price.

It makes me shake my head when I see that **** on eBay...empty housing where someone just gutted a scaly old rust bucket and wants $600...I guess I found a steal when I bought my housing with good axles (even though they are SBP) for $400 (including shipping) then a 741 pig with 3.23 SG for $410 (again, with shipping). And I still had to buy the lock tab, and backing plates, shock plates...and I still need the brake lines. I'm gonna be in that thing for over a grand by the time it's ready to bolt in-and they're all USED parts...I don't even know if the SG unit is good, so I'll probably rebuild it just for good measure before it all goes together.

Oh...and I'll still need new leafs too...lol
