    Exedy Frictions 727

    Thanks Garrett - After I posted this I found some talk on other manufacturer specific boards complaining about them not being flat, but I've checked these and they are all flat and true.

    Exedy Frictions 727

    Good morning- i am doing a mostly stock rebuild (except for Transgo TF-2 kit) on my small block 727 and went with the Transtar 22008c deluxe overhaul kit without realizing that they no longer come with Raybestos or Borg Warner frictions. It shipped with tan Exedy clutches. Any thoughts on...

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Just closing the loop here. I have a new driveshaft coming from Brewer’s and and am addressing the trans now. Thanks for all the help!

    How long is that longest one? Mine is about 6 1/4 inches.

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Good info - I guess the question is now that the old rear is out and after the new one is in - will the longer yoke be an issue? I can always measure to account for the longer yoke and have the driveshaft shortened accordingly. I will have to poke around and see.

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Sorry for the delay - the circled area is dirt The transmission and motor sit level. That casting on the tail shaft housing above the red lines is not symmetrical for some reason.

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Guys, I REALLY appreciate all the feedback- 1) I've been planning this swap for some time now - rebuilding the axle, purchasing new left springs etc. Part of the plan all along has been to measure for and have a correct length driveshaft built or have this one cut down and balanced, as I know...

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Hey Bobzilla- No hate for your answer at all. I appreciate it. Ive pretty much resigned myself to pulling this transmission and have it gone through. The PO claimed it was rebuilt but if the same folks that jammed that driveshaft in without shortening it were the ones who built it, I’m...

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Photos are attached - we have some other issues though (and why wouldn't there be lol) Lots of rust on slip joint and if you look closely enough, we have some strawberry milkshake in the trans....interestingly enough what's in the pan looks OK. But it's definitely seen some water at some...

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Caps were damaged on the rear joint upon disassembly - but they were getting tossed anyway. Yes, that was due to not having any distance to push the driveshaft in like I normally would. I'll pull the seal and get the slip joint pictures posted here in a bit. Thanks

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Hi Mopar Tim - thanks for the feedback. Even with the currently installed axle jacked up and not hanging, the driveshaft is fully seated in the transmission (bottomed out) and there is about 1/4" stopping the ujoint from going into the pinion yoke. Just to clarify -I'm not trying to assemble...

    727 - Driveshaft Jammed All The Way In

    Nope - haven't installed the 8 3/4 yet. This is with the 7.25 still installed - the only thing I have done is remove the driveshaft so far. Sorry if that was unclear :) Thanks!

    1972 Duster Twister / 318 / 727 / 7.25 axle Greetings - I'm finally getting around to getting my 8 3/4 swapped into my Duster (as an upgrade and to address weird drivetrain noise that I 'thought' was a pinion bearing) Today I crawled under and started removing the driveshaft and realized....no...

    Looks like I may have waited to long to buy the ticket. Seems the only ones available are for Sunday...too bad I like to hit the swap meet on the first day :)

    Greetings from Oregon

    Hello everyone - I joined a few weeks ago, but only now getting around to introducing myself. My name is Jesse and I recently got into another A body after several years. My last one was a 1971 Demon and I sold it in 2006. I recently picked up a rust free 1972 Duster Twister - it's a 318...
