Don't think so, but I could be proven wrong.

There are a couple potential issues with early A tail housings and what shifter you have. If you stay in the years you are asking about you should be good to go though.

Dumb question but, are you sure you put the brakes back together right?

Whatever you do, please document with 8x10 glossy photographs with a paragraph on the back of each one, Sorry for the Arlo reference.

So you are saying the 4.0L Jeep bell that i scrapped would have bolted to my 318 and a Ford T5WC?

Sensibly driven on dry pavement it makes no difference. I drove my 64 Valiant every day for five years with an open rear on all kinds of roads. No problems, even pulled a 4x4 out of the ditch with once. If you want to race or do burn outs, get the SG.

It might have something to do with a transmission that is priced more than the car it is going in is worth. To those that have one, I wonder what you will do when it breaks or needs parts. Back to the old pick-a-part option I guess.

f it's an 8.25 it is already big bolt I think. I could be wrong but also think all 73 would be big bolt.

seals and bearings and maybe install a suregrip if I can find one. I have a little bit of leakage on one side and just a hint of leakage on the other.

What would a rebuild be worth at a reputable shop? I can't believe the price the shop gave me, $1147. I figure I can buy two or three rears for that kind of money.

Take pics as you go and post a tech tip. I ask about this a while back and was told it wouldn't work so like a dumbass, I didn't even try.

If you don't mind my adding to your questions.... Will the emergency brake cables (which are about 3-4" longer) work or do we need to change them out for the cars originals? I am working with a 66 Barracuda and a 73 duster rear. BTW: the brake hoses are different but the newer work. It is...

I had him check the bolt pattern and he reported 4" in the dark with a flashlight. If it has the 4" pattern it must be a 7.25 right?

Wow that was quick! thanks guys.

Can you swap axles in the 8.25 rears to get to the bigger wheel bolt pattern? I found a 8.25 out of a 71 Duster for $100 and already have the front setup out of a 73 Duster. Is it worth it to grab what I can get or should I wait for a later rear?

Whatcha talkin bout "threads into"? You will be better off getting the repair kit and using your old housing anyway. Those china made replacements are too long and cheap crap.

What about the 2WD Toy pickups? are they the same transmission?

I assume that is the older rear wheel drive models?

What 5-speed out of the salvage yard would be the best fit for and early A. 66 Barracuda with '84 318 to be specific. Since I can't sell the car, I might as well start thinking about making it into something I want. I'm not hot rodding and won't be going to the strip with it, I just want a...

I wish we were neighbors. I would swap you the 904 setup out of my 66 barracuda. I want a 4 speed.

I don't race, but manuals seem to be more maintenance free on daily driven vehicles for me anyway.

After you get your car together, if you still have that v-8 bell housing, i would be interested in it if the price is good. Maybe the tranny too

memike posted a nice one sheet rearend spotter the other day.

Yeah, that was before i saw the truck and I didn't have a clue. It looks like a car tranny. I just hope it doesn't have the granny gear.

1980 d150 pickup, slant six four speed. great body, no rust. engine is siezed. My buddy tells me that I can get an engine at the local pick-n-pull for $100. I also have a 318 poly sitting in my garage if I can find a bell housing and flywheel for it. My kid "borrowed" my camera so pics will...

bump, anybody? Bueller?

slant six and v8 trannys are different. the starter is located in a different place. Shame you spent money on it, you might be able to get it back but the way the economy is I doubt it. Can't seem to sell anything these days.

I'm swapping engines in my 64 Valiant and have a problem with my transmission. the bearing housing that the throw-out bearing rides on is broken. Does anyone have one of these laying around? transmission worked fine for a crash box.

I have oil pans off 64-66 slants. I assume they will work.
