    Torque Converter Problems?

    Fishy, thanks for the advice, I will check it out. It makes sense to me, to adjust the carb while it is in D as this is where the car is most of the time and where I am having troubles. What about adjusting the timing, there shouldnt be a difference if it is in P or D right? On a side note...

    Green Bearing 8.75 Axle Leak

    Ya I realized after I put it all back together I should have taken pictured :( 77bulnblu you are totally right. The guy I got the housing from said it wad a truck unit that he shortened.

    Green Bearing 8.75 Axle Leak

    So I got the NAPA 15460 and it did not fit. I put it into the the housing and hammered it in but it did not go further in and the axle when put in did not even come close to to fitting all the way in. Maybe I need to hammer it in further?

    Green Bearing 8.75 Axle Leak

    Finally it stopped raining and I was able to take a look at the car. I am not 100% sure where the vent is located. But I did find a hole on the top of the driver side shaft if the housing. I had a Y block for the brakes screwed into it. So I unscrewed that and secured the y block somewhere else...

    I am wanting to convert over to disc brakes all around but am running into some troubles. All the kit I have found require the 8 3/4 or the Dana rear ends. I am pretty sure I got the 7.25 on my 66 v8 dart. Really I am jsut looking for the 5 on 4.5 bolt pattern. Though at some point I was wanting...
