So I picked up a 68 Polara not long ago with a 383 and a shot 727. I finally got around to swapping out the transmission with a 727 from a 77 New Yorker that I had sitting around. I cleaned it up changed the filter and adjusted the bands before installing it. It shifted smooth and through all...

I'm trying to install my hurst shifter and linkages on my 440 4 speed duster. My shifter linkages seem to be to low and are hitting the trans cross member. I have schumaker motor mounts that move the block forward about an inch. Can someone tell me if the shifter mounting bracket holes seem to...

So I picked up a 68 polara (I know, not an A body) for pretty cheap because it was having transmission problems. I figured it'd be no big deal since I have a working 727 in the garage. The trans seems to be slipping very badly. Is there anyway this could be caused by the linkages not being...

Yesterday I was driving my Duster and had to slam on the breaks. As soon as I did I heard a thunk and started having problems with my clutch. I limped home and started to pull the drive train. I know I didn't need to but I had planned on pulling it out anyways this weekend to start my 440 swap...

I'm about to swap the 727 out of my 68 polara and figured while I've got it out I may as well put in a better converter. I dont know much about converters so I'm not sure what I need. Here's the specs; 383, pretty much stock. Headers, intake, and carb. I'll be putting a 727 from a 77 new yorker...

I had a shop rebuild my carrier and this is the contact pattern I'm getting. Does it need adjusting?

I know this is probably very simple but I've never done it before. I've looked at the green bearings because they look simpler but alot of people are saying they're drag race only. What exactly is the correct way to adjust the axles on an 8 3/4 489 case axle? Also who makes a good kit with all...

I think I finally have my new ring and pinion ready for duty. But before I get it all back together I'd like to hear from somebody who knows what they're talking about. How tight do the carrier bearings need to be? The back lash is set at .03. The BL written on the ring gear was .01 (seems kinda...

first off this is a 489 case. I'm putting my differential back together but I'm not sure how tight it all needs to be. I installed a solid spacer and torqued the pinion down to 125 in lb per the instructions. But if I use the shims that came with the spacer, I cant get the bearings to seat. I...

I'm in the process of rebuilding my differiantial because I had some differiantial whine and vibration. 3 of the 4 carrier cap bolts were lose. Which would explain my vibration. Anyways, I'm trying to change out my ring and pinion and cant seem to find a new rear pinion bearing anywhere. I was...

Well I bought myself another duster today. The current owner is pulling the 383 and A-727 before he delivers this weekend. I found a 77 New yorker with a 440 and A-727 in it that I would like to drop in my new baby but I wanted to make sure it'll fit. Is the trans tailshaft different? What...

I cant figure this one out. when I'm driving my 74 duster on the highway it vibrates like crazy. Its fine all the way up to 55 and it goes away at 65. I've had my wheels ballenced and it didnt fix the problem. Could this be my drive shaft? I dont want to pay to have the drive shaft balenced if...
