You need to have the motor and trans installed. Without that you have no "true" value to set pinion angle. A quick search through the forums will result some good info on this. I personally do not like to "set" my pinion angle without installing the rear, in other words, I install the rear...

For what its worth to you, I cut down a drive shaft out of '87 D250 for my '70. It measured 4" as well, I have no clearance issues, I'm running a 8.8 rear too. The rear has been cut down on drivers side in which moves the pinion towards the drivers side. Hope this helps.

For you guys who have moved your rear back, how close is it to the gas tank? I'm in the process of finishing up my swap, and with it mounted in the center of the perch, I have 1-1/2" from the diff cover to the gas tank. If I were to move it back 1-3/8" it isn't going to leave me much room. Too I...

Like AJ said, measure, measure , measure and then measure some more.. don't assume what worked for one with tight clearance will work for you.. ( lesson learned via school of hard knocks). Imo, best guarantee is to find the wheel and tire combo that suits your need/want and build rear to suit...

Lot of mods? Only mods was cutting down the column. What did he cut out? Did he cut a section out of the manifold?

The factory service manuals will go along ways in proper setup of drum brakes, don't ignore there specs on things. I do not know of any secrets as far as swapping parts, ie master cylinder, wheel cylinder, from another donor, what I can tell you is there is certain criteria that needs to be met...

The biggest key to drum brakes starts with having the correct components, ie master cylinder, wheel cylinders, correct proportion valve. Once them demands are meant it is an absolute to have good drums,ie ones that are within spec, brake shoes that are installed correctly,( ie primary and...

I don't have any "hands on experience" with using them headers, but through some research I have found others whom tried it and was a no go! I have a set of '92 magnum Dakota manifolds on my '70 dart, with that said, I have manual steering, floor shifter and I fabricated my own motor mounts. I...

I'm not a big "poster" on here, or any other forum, to many voices and "opinions" can make for a foggy answer to a question! With that said, just like Rusty, I will not even consider installing a camshaft without putting a degree wheel on it! Once you install one that is few degrees off and...

It be of my opinion some of the chebby loving asses that are on here need to take there selfs and fondness of them over to a forum that is more suited for that brand!! If you grew up in that era of time ya would understand where some of these fellas come from, but it is obvious some havent and...

Snap-On, end of story.. 3/8 and 1/2 " drive..

55 gallon barrel or something of the sort, red devil lye and something else, cant remember what and probably a good thing as ya had to watch what you were doing (mixing chemicals). We used a wood fire to heat it to a good rolling boil, just make sure ya rinse your parts down well after...

Anyone got any tips or tricks for cutting and or installing lexan for windshield in my 72 swinger? Thanks for any help

I use a HVLP gun from matco, lower end gun,but is user friendly with primers and paints..

best thing since sliced bread!!!!

Comes down to dollars and cents really, but i can tell you them Eaton compressor heads are of good quality..

X's 3-- Take the advise given from others, walk away from it , it wont be as cheap an easy as one may think..unless you can do the fab work yourself.. then who is to say just how straight them axle tubes are.. good luck to ya.

Clean it off with a wire brush well, insert the correct allen wrench in the center bolt and hold it from turning while you back the jam nut off. I personally make a eighth to a quarter turn, then road test, as stated by others usually about a half turn will get ya there. BUT make sure the slop...

Do a google image search for a mopar 8.75 spring perch, should give ya a better understanding then my words.

Well its the half moon shape piece with a flat bottom that is welded to your rear end housing that sits on top of the leaf springs..

Looks to be a ladder bar setup of some sort, possibly homemade, there is not no spring perchs on it from what i can see, hence it not gona be no bolt in deal. Width sounds like will be darn close, but again as others stated, need to know the WMS( wheel mounting surface) to WMS dimensions..
