I bought a clutch style lsd from a member on a different sight who said it was for a 8.75 back in March of this year. Went to install the ring gear and though it seems like it wants to fit, the ring gear bolts wont seat completely due to the shoulder above the threads. Something to me seems...

Getting damned close to pulling the old 7.25 & sliding in the 8.75 rear. I have the correct shock plates but need to make sure the U-bolts I get are correct. Looks like the housing has 3" shafts so are the correct U-bolts 1/2" x 3.25" x 7.5" Summit lists these (And of course I just ordered a...

Okay I've decided to start to piece together a new rear end to replace the 7 1/4 w/ 2.76 gears that I've got in my '73 swinger. i'm hoping a few folks who've been through this or have some knowledge on complimentary set up can chime in. I've got a 318 w/ 904 302 heads w/ 188.160 valves, bowl...

Going to look at an 8.25 rear from a '74 Dart tomorrow to replace the 7.25 in my '73. I know the 8.25 had two different carriers 2.45 and a 2.76 & up. if the factory tag is missing, is there still a way to tell? And if it is the smaller carrier, can the internals be swapped at a later time to...

Believe it or not I really like the bench seat in my '73 swinger however I really like the look & driveablility of a floor shifted car & have been kicking around the idea of an eventual conversion. I dont see any reason why a bench seat & floor shifted automatic need to be mutually exclusive...

Looks like I may have located a 8.25" sure-grip rear end that I can pull a donor center section from. The guy selling says it's an 8.25" w/ 3:23 (assuming 3:21) from a '71-72 B-Body. My question is; is the center section a straight up swap into my '73 Swinger 8.25". If so, here's the real novice...

New cam is recommending 2k stall. When looking around I came across these two options. One says light pads/Low Stall another says high stall and another still has no designation. Does anyone know what the stall is on these converters? Furthermore the 1st two say for '77-up. Is there a...

Which year Dakotas are a workable donor for the 8 1/4 sure grip (just the unit, not the entire rear). I'm reading a few threads that seem to say up to around '95 and others make mentions of '97's, but I cant seem to confirm the exact cutoff? Trying to expand my donor car options, can anyone help...

Hey all. I've got a '73 swinger 318 with a 904 trans & 8.25 rear. I've been keeping an eye out for a sure grip unit with hopes of swapping the gears out for 3:21 (2:96 now). I figured with a basically stock 318 (4 bbl & exhaust) that the 3:21 will be a nice balance of throttle response &...

Got a rookie question. How can I identify what stock gears came in my 73 swinger 318 as well as the the spline (I believe it may be 27) without opening the case? Looks like the factory installed either 2:45/1 or the 2:74/1 but the 2:74/1 would have been a factory option. is there a code on the...

I"ve got a '73 swinger w/ a 318 I'm still familiarizing myself with. I'm hoping to get a little info from those out there who know. I pulled the old brittle build sheet from under the rear seat & I'm having a tough time breaking the codes. trying to ID what tranny, diff & gears I have. build...
