Making The Weak 7-1/4 Rear Axle Live... Kinda
I picked up a 74 up 8.25 out of a Dart and put the Dakota sure grip with 3.55 gears in it.
It’s a direct bolt in with different OD bearings for the carrier.
Then the Jeep Grand Cherokee disc brakes were a bolt on.
I did replace the wheel studs with longer ones because the discs took up about 3/8.
Now if I ever need parts they are readily available.
