I know this is an old thread, but some of us still run our 7 1/4 rears. Thanks for the tips!

X2! Its crazy easy.

Its so simple its brilliant. Thanks for the tip! :cheers:

Well I guess you have it all planned out.:cheers: A well built 904 would fit right in with no mods and some here would argue its just as strong as, and lighter than, a 727. Are you and Jake making it to Carlisle again this year?

Maybe pop in a 8.25 rear axle and upgrade the front brakes so all 4 corners are the big bolt pattern. :happy1:

Here is another 8.25 Jeep swap FABO forum with some important measurements and U joint info. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=267728&highlight=axle+perch

I found a FABO thread for the disk brake install on the 8.25 axle. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=301415

Hopefully you folks like it and the mods can make it a sticky. :cheers:

Mopar 8.25 Rear Axle All info is compiled from various threads and forums for your upgrading pleasure. I’m not the expert, just the guy doing the research and wanted to share. No claims that this is 100% complete or accurate. Built by the Dana Corporation, the housing is cast iron with...

I know you are trying to keep the look stock but a Lokar throttle pressure cable would replace the linkage. Or you could make a newer shorter rod in that location. Keep the build info coming! :happy1:

With Apologies to Sweets for hijacking his thread. There is no doubt the Lokar system is the best looking and functional cable out there. That's probably why there aren't more of them on the market. The cheap eBay knockoffs are just that, cheap, not low buck. The Bouchillon kit is nice too...

I'm A Low Buck kinda Guy, What year Dakota?

If your friend is a professional tranny rebuilder, he should be able to get parts for a 727 from his suppliers. If he can do a th400, he can do a 727 for you. It may be cheaper to have him do the chevy tranny for you, but the cost to get it mounted to a Mopar engine will make it a wash or worse...

I performed my first 904 overhaul last year on the 66 with great results and installed a Transgo shift improver kit. One of the issues it claims to resolve is front bushing and seal burn up. I used their SK®TFSC kit and I really like the shift firmness. I'm not a transmission expert by any...

How are the rear springs? Check the thread below. It helped me diagnose my vibration @ 70 Mph as my saggy rear leafs. Temp fix was adding helper springs, added 1 1/2" lift and the vibration is minimized greatly. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=62042

I have a similar vibration problem @ 70 mph and I haven't yet changed the original leaf springs. The left leaf sags a bit and I'm guessing this also effects the pinion angle causing a vibration. This is my first post here. Lots of great info so I thought I would join and participate when I can.
