''I'm going to fix it up someday'' The resurrection of a '74 Dart Sport......
Well, i guess it's time to get my rear end in gear and update this thread. (Literally!)
I decided to put in a B Body 8 3/4 in the car. I wanted to do this so the wheels will be centered in the wheel housing so i can run a 255-60-15 on a stock offset 15X7 rallye wheel.
Other advantages to going this route is i will have the big bolt pattern automatically by doing this. A friend of mine did this on his '71 Demon and it fit and worked perfectly! :cheers:
All that was needed to do to make it fit was move the spring perches in 1/2'' on each side.
I actually cut off the old ones and welded on new ones, cleaned up the rear end housing, and painted it.
The rear end was complete that i pulled out of my '69 Super Bee years ago to put in a Dana 60. The gears are 3:23 sure grip in a 489 case but need replacing due to the crush sleeve getting loose.:banghead:
