Just remember if you use axles that need B body brakes as Dr Diff's do or put on rear disc brakes, they will widens the hub to hub length of the rear axle. So you are going to need wheels with more backspacing to center the wheels and tires back in the wheel wells.

I have Moser axles in my Dart. I ordered the axles for the standard A body width and hub size to run stock 1 3/4" 10 inch drums and had them drilled with both bolt patterns 4" and 4 1/2", and I drilled the drums for the 4 1/2" pattern. This is for the Dana 60 that's under my 66 Dart with 30...

Just for reference, center of axle shaft to center of rear universal or yoke for the 5 axles that were used. 7 1/4 10.09" 8 1/4 11.69" 9 1/4 11.69" 8 3/4 12.35" 9 3/4 13.47" Okay one other fact I read in one of my books(which I can't seem to find the reference to it now) is...

Hey YR, didn't mean to to turn this into a big argument, You and I and a few others on this forum seam to be the only ones that have move on from the 60's and 70's antiquated clutch technology of 3500# pressure plates and rage disc's and of coarse the 1 ton flywheel. I like to clear up a few...

Evidently you do not race a stick car and if you do it's not very fast and it breaks a lot of parts. I put an aluminum flywheel and soft-loc clutch in my street Dart and pick over a half second( 11 teens at 120 to 10.70 at 126) with no other changes. Recently I pull the flywheel and clutch for a...

The only problem with heavy flywheels and clutches is inertia, They have a lot of pent up inertia which does help to accelerate the car and get heavy vehicles moving. But inertia is like the IRS, it wants to be paid back ASAP. As soon as it is used up your engines torque and horsepower has to...

The handle is a small front brake lever from a Honda dirt bike. That I modified the handlebar bracket to mount to the bracket on the shift handle were the rod and t-handle were. Then I picked up a metal rod the same thickness as the original rod,cut and bent it to fit and tapped threads on both...

The only thing different we use to do was to add 727 clutch springs inside the four pre load springs, a little tough on the street on corners but it kepted both wheels locked together at the drag strip.

If it has the companion flange it is a 1964 or 1965 trans. The A-body trans will have the shifter mount lugs on the rear (behind the trans mount) of the tail housing and a short tail shaft. All of these early ( with companion flange ) A-body trans had 3.09 first gears,1.92 second,1.40 third, and...

As far as I know 904 came behind 273 and /6, 998 were behind 318 in cars, 999 were behind 360 from 74 till it was replace by the A500 in A,B,C,F,M,J body cars and light trucks and vans. The 2.74 low gear set was used in 904,998,and 999 in 1978 through the late 80's to help cars get moving with...

I've been running a slick shifted trans at the track for 3 years now. It can be driven on the the street but not recommended unless you are very good with a road ranger at matching rpm and road speed. At the track is where they shine and the faster you shift them the longer they last , miss a...

The 3.09 first gear trannies are just as strong as any other 833. The gear sets in the low gear trans ( made from 64 to 66 in /6 and 273 a bodys and again from 73 to 75 in Dart Sports and Dusters with 318 and 2.76 rearend gear) are innerchangable with all 23 spline trans. as a complete gear set...

I have a 3 1/2 inch axle tube dana 60 in my dart with caltrac's. The plate for the caltrac's are wide enough for the 3 1/2 axle, I just oblonged the holes and got the right ubolt for the axle tubes. If not comfortable with that weld up the holes and redrill holes in the plates

I'm sorry I made a mistake it is not a bill of laden number, it is a bill of materials number.

Some where in the mid to late 90s dana changed over to a crushcollar for pinion preload on the dana 60 these housings were not marked with a 60 on the housing, at leased the one I have in my car was not. If you take the bill of laden number off the tag on the back cover and go to the dana web...

They had an article in the old chrysler power mag years ago where they machined down the ends of the cones so they would not bottom out in the case, and then shimed the side gears back to the spider gears (as the cones ware the side gears and spiders pull apart). Then they put clutch pack...

On the dana power lock sure grip(742 clutch type) the clutch hub has around 5/8" of spline,than the axle has to aline with the side gear (spider gears) with another 5/8" of spline than against the center pin. So you have 1 1/4" of axle ingagement perside.

It sounds like the wire clip that goes in the to the two small holes on the frame side of the z bar is missing or not hooked into the grooves in the nylon bushings, this keeps the z bar located.
