I'm looking for an 8-1/4" axle, 2.94 gears, and a sure grip for my 1973 Duster. And shock mounting plates.

The 7-1/4" in it is fine, but way back in the day, I broke 6 of them behind Slant Sixes. So I should probably have a replacement ready, as you can't just go to the local junkyard these days and grab another axle complete in the car.

I was considering going to Mopar Carlisle in July, I could pick it up there, or I am in the Pittsburgh area, drive a few hundred miles in any direction for it.

I don't really need the brake backing plate assemblies, I can use the 10 X 2-1/2 brakes from my 7-1/4, but if you have them, I'll get them. I can rebuild the sure grip unit, I've done that before, it just needs to be complete.
 
I got mine from @halifaxhops running the same gear in my 360 66 Valiant Sedan, pulls like a 440 with these gears. 9.08 1/8 mile

I have a set of 2.94 gears but don't remember what axle they're for. I'll check and let you know later today. Thanks!
 

My 2.94 gears are for an 8 3/4. The only set of 8 1/4 gears I have are brand new 2.71's. Thanks!
