I will have a set of 2.94 gears available very soon, but not a whole rear axle unfortunately. From my research, you can get suregrips from late model jeeps (Jeep libertys) and Dakotas up to 93 or 94 I believe, but there was a year where they changed spline counts from 27 to 29, so you need to...

I have an 8.25" in a 1977 Volare wagon with a suregrip, and I am wanting to switch gears. Someone local to me is selling a complete 2008 dakota 8.25 axle with 3.55 gears. Wondering if the 3.55 ring and pinion will work on the older carrier. I believe my current gears are 2.94 ratio. Any help is...

Thanks for the help gentlemen. Was hoping it would be a factory high stall unit, but obviously not. Searching I go now for something thats 2800-3000.

Wondering if anyone can help identify what stall this factory converter might be. I didn't have a tach in the car to know, and would like a rough idea if possible to decide if I want to reinstall it with the new combo. It was behind a 360. Thanks!

Thank you for that break down! I have some of those parts in my current build already, so subtracting those, I need about $5,200 worth of parts for my 727 to be as bullet proof as possible...Better start saving now! And no, I am not being sarcastic, as I regularly see well built glides and...

Thanks for clarifying about the sprag stuff. I knew about the Ultimate Sprags, but I guess I was just thinking of the plain bolt in units. Yea this is a street car first and foremost, but I would like to run it in a few of the daily driver no prep classes here, so it will have to withstand some...

The guy local I bought my transbrake vb from had one too, but this is a street car so i want bullet steel for it when I do upgrade. Always thought a bolt in sprag was to replace a no good sprag? This trans was completely apart, all checked with a few parts added here and there. I know its not...

No LBA here. 2nd gear burnouts always. A billet front drum will come one day. Always run a blanket on my stuff. Should work for a bit until i can get back in to upgrade it.

Im looking to make between 800-900 with my procharged G3 hemi, and my 727 does not have close to the parts list mentioned in this thread....Fingers crossed it lives for a bit before I have to upgrade lol

I agree with you entirely about a gauge, deep pan, trans coolers, etc.

Now all of a sudden we are talking about lockup? lol...whatever, I'll save my money and run faster then those who like to blow it on parts they are going to "cruise" Good luck OP!

The right way? Ask the many who have put the 5 thins in the front drum of a 904 or 5 thinner frictions in a 727, the transmissions are holding up fine in race applications. I ran 5 thin frictions in my front drum this past season, 11.20's off the brake at 3500lbs, 10.50 on a 150 hit...STOCK THIN...

An aftermarket front drum is a total waste of money in a 904...Unless your turning higher rpms then pro stock, they are not prone to the same catastrophic failures as 727's.

I wouldn't waste my money on red clutches and Kolene steels. 5 clutches in a 4 clutch front drum (thin clutches)...I use stock replacement raybestos clutches and re-tumbled stock steels TCS multi spring kit Tranzact trans brake valve body (if yours is really a race car, forget about that...

Thanks for the links Fishy! I had heard of air testing them, just wasn't sure how it was to be done. I was going to do the assembly before going into the case, but it definitely makes sense to do it once its in there as well

Fishy, can you post that diagram for air testing the main assembly?

appreciated :thumbrig:

There is a local trans parts house here that I called before that is not bad on prices either. If they don't have what I need, I will try WITT for the hard parts. I have been on the bulkpart site quite a bit now, thanks for suggesting though

Ok, I hear you on the input shaft and output shaft thing. I guess it looks like the only way I will know is to buy the damn thing and find out the hard (I really hope it is a low gear and will work). As for the parts place, I will definitely use them in the future if I need hard parts- im...

Thanks...was nothing special really, but definitely a fun ride

Is there a way to verify the trans as a low gearset externally? All I know is it came out of a 89 Ram D150 2 wheel drive truck...On another forum a torqueflite guru said that all 82' and later 904's used low gear sets....now you have me worried:? I believe on 904's the outshaft where the low...

I found an A-500 locally. Apparently these trans have steel planets and the low gear set, which would be nice since i wanted to replace my aluminum front planet at the very least. What parts do I absolutely have to replace when doing the low gear set swap? Automatics are very new to me since I...

Just called the local u-pull it yard and its $160 for a transmission, minus $25 for a core. I need to upgrade to steel planets in my current trans anyways, which are $100 alone for the pair from the local trans parts house- if I can swap the steel planets from the later lockup models in, then...

Hey guys, I would like to do the low gear swap on my 72 year 904 transmission. My transmission currently has aluminum 4 pinion planets front and rear. My first question- what vehicles have low gear set transmissions? My local wreckers is scarce for 80's year chryslers, so later model stuff...

Nice! everytime i see one of those rocky mountain dashes i wish they were still in business...

if you want a poor mans slickshift for easier higher rpm shifting, grind the first and second tooth off the hub that engages the gears, leaving every third tooth. The hub will wear faster (from aggressive powershifting) but it will shift much better at higher rpm's short of going to a real...

The passon 5 speed seems nice, but i definatly wouldnt pay 5k for a transmission that cant hold BIG power...not worth imo unless you really need the overdrive in a 1 of 11 71 cuda convert LOL Speaking from personal experience, there is no way, unless you have all the work outsourced to...

from what i know, those 2.45 close ratio boxes can fetch a pretty penny, especially with guys doing challenger T/A or AAR cuda restos/recreations...if you sell it you should have more than enough for a 2.66 box

i always thought the only ratios available were 2.45 in the close ratio, 2.66, and the 3.09

Call me a worry freak, but i wouldnt run a street car without one, let alone a track car you can find used ones for a little more than factory stuff, and i think the extra coin is worth your legs
