Not me buddy I’m Studebaker all the way!!!

Great! If these are original axles they can be cut and resplined.

Are you planning to use small bolt pattern or large 4 vs 4.5?

Is that the one in pea ridge?

Depends on your welding ability but realistically if you must shorten the housing/axles and you don't have the equipment and or knowledge compare the actual costs involved in building axles. Most of the time you can buy an a body housing for the price of shortening and shipping. The truck gears...

What year D100?

Or thumped out with a two pound hammer and pulled through with nuts.

Dry rcr on here has an8.25 for 150

Bob is correct! 8.25 is a good rear and reasonable priced.No need to swap for the sake of swapping.

It's like anything else,when you buy a $50 rear and do the work to install it you still have a $50 rear.8.25's are good rears and hold up to 300-400hp launches 8 3/4's have lived very well behind 340's -440's and the great advantage is resale!

Yes 70's had column shift three speed

I totally agree with this!Everyone wants a cheaper route but you need to get all the costs involved!The end result is what makes the difference,even if someone gives you the rear!

I should have one-I will look tomorrow

Hmmmm;sometimes you just need to look at the big picture.When you won't pay for an 8 3/4 original then you roll the dice.I have seen a bunch of people on here do the same thing-some work some dont.Good Luck!

First thing you need to understand is 8.8 ford rears were never installed in Chrysler a bodies from the factory.All things must be considered-brakes,width,center of driveshaft,length of shaft,shocks etc.Can it be accomplished? Sure,I have seen a jet engine in a Volkswagen!Before you jump out and...

It ain't rocket science but experience has no equal.clean-clean-clean if you don't clean it will screw a build up quick

New MP flywheel for a 360 got it in a trade 125 plus shipping

Yep I have ran redrilled for quite a few years with no problems,sorry I'm not from Ga.

You guy's need to understand that-it is a system.The weakest link will be your biggest problem.Say what you will about 7.25-8.25-8 3/4 Dana 60-Dana 80 but none are bullittproof.It takes Franklin's to go fast and the faster you want the more Franklin's you will lay down.

100 for a rebuild kit????I don't know what kit you have but bearings and races and seal for 100?I must be reading another cheap bastard thread!Thats a great price if the kit is Timkin or same quality.

Yep; you are correct Fishy,I certainly agree with you. I also know that these years were not the greatest quality control years.I have talked to a bunch of the line workers and I myself have worked in all the car plants in St Louis as a carpenter/Millwright.When you see these cars going down the...

You are correct-M codes used 741's. Any 8 3/4 is a great center and capable of taking a lot of abuse.

Sorry dont have the specs,I pulled the 727 out of a 68 340 cuda,all factory,had a 904 that had been rebuilt also had a new convertor for the 904,put it in made a few changes but it still works great.Other than it has more room and different shift points it works great.

Nope-I agree with you. We have a bunch of 8.8's of all types.And we sell them because they are NOT bullitproof.All I can say is-that sure is cheap for a mustang complete rear!

That is correct.When you frankenstein these cars all the chart numbers are no good.Bolt the rear down before you measure,don't leave anything to chance

???full description?Here are some questions that-if you get this into court-you will be asked.How many miles were on the trans when you took it to Aamco?When you say-limited income- that says you probably informed them you could not afford a full rebuild.Did you direct them to do what they could...

Ok- I give up.I'm just not as good as I used to be at reading minds.

235?Did you or the shop install the shift kit?I agree with the last poster-it's not good to leave it off but the cause for a new rebuilt to grenade????

Green bearings or tapered bearings?

You are correct Moper it is definately a"system".Most people will drill the valve body plate-adjust the line pressure-pull the servo springs then can't understand why it just shifts hard at the same rpm's.
