    Stock 8 3/4 axle shafts - max HP limit?

    LOL, just found out last night he actually broke his housing unit at the dragstrip about a year ago with one of their Dusters. Goes to show I guess, some guys running 10 and 11 sec cars for years without breaking an axle or studs. This guy trailers his car 90 miles to LVD and blows up a...

    70 Duster 340 production numbers question

    My car was actually sold up at an Oregon dealership. SE part of the state in the desert. (technically semi-arid) :) I always recall seeing them more on '71 Dusters and Demons myself. I've heard so much about that being a dealer install, but since it seems so difficult to verify I kinda gave up.

    Stock 8 3/4 axle shafts - max HP limit?

    That I'm not sure about. I mostly just see them at local shows and events but next time I do I'll inquire. I'm assuming I can upgrade my own and still be able to use my rallye wheels if need be

    70 Duster 340 production numbers question

    Hey Adam.. Just checking his website out, seems to be pretty happy to answer questions about his products but does he mind the interference in his day for this kinda inquire? If I knew him I would give him a shout

    Stock 8 3/4 axle shafts - max HP limit?

    THX.. I would take that as good news. The guy who offered me a pair of street slicks is running high 10's with his 416 stroker in his own Duster. 8 3/4 rear, 489 case but steeper gear ratio @ 4.56:1 or 4.88:1 I think sbp too

    Stock 8 3/4 axle shafts - max HP limit?

    What would be the edge limit for HP/TQ using the stock axles in the 8 3/4" rear? Currently I have a 489 case (West Coast Diff.) with only @ 3500 miles on it if memory serves me right it has the 1 7/8 pinion which they highly recommended. SS springs, otherwise the housing is the original unit...

    70 Duster 340 production numbers question

    Hmmmm. I hear crickets :) I'm not sure I've exhausted all my efforts on the web to find these specs, but it sure seems like it though. Wondering why the '71 340 production numbers are so specific and easy to research..
