[WANTED] 8 1/4 rear end from late model a body

Road/Rage · Mar 30, 2021

I need a late model 8/1/4 rear with a 3.55 3.73 gear, I was told these would bolt on in place of my 7.25!

If it comes out of a 73 or newer A body yes it will bolt in. You will need The proper U-bolts and shock plates.

You will have to shorten your driveshaft.

You need some for a 8 3/4 which is the most common application. U bolts are 3” wide 7” long. Look here or on EBay.
