Great write-up. Is your Dart a console car? Your shifter handle looks like a console one. I might be wrong. I’m certainly no Inland expert.

Got an email back from Cass at Dr. Diff. He’s got exactly what I need although they’re not listed on his website. Thank to everyone who replied.

Thank you. Would you know a part number? I checked his site last night and it looked like all shafts I saw were for 1/2 studs.

Does anyone know if the aftermarket makes a factory drop in 8 3/4 axle shaft with small bolt pattern for 7/16 pressed studs? I don’t want to change rear brakes too. Car is a ‘68 Barracuda. Thanks

Check with this poor guy....

So I finally found the reference to not using Type F transmission fluid. It wasn’t in the Torqueflite Transmission Handbook after all but it was in the Chrysler Performance Upgrades Book by Frank Adkins.

If I remember correctly (it’s been awhile since I read it) the Torqueflite Transmission Handbook by Carl Munroe recommends NOT running Type F fluid. I can double check that when I get home.

I installed a 2.76 in my ‘69 Dart 340 A727 with a 245/60/14 tire. Love those gears for highway cruising. With a 4 speed you have to ride the clutch a bit to get it moving. No problem at all with the automatic transmission installed.

So I pulled the axle shafts out last night, and like you all said, no oil leaked out. I did notice what appears to be the thrust plug still in the center of the carrier (489 case, 2.76 gear, open diff). Should I be able to see through the carrier if there's no thrust plug installed? Does this...

Thanks to all that replied.

I'm pulling the axle shafts out of my 8 3/4 rear end to change the axle bearings and I can't remember if I have to drain the gear oil before I pull the shafts out.

Sorry, I just freed up some room in my inbox.

I think you can get them from Aircraft Spruce.com or any local hydraulic supply place.

At work we use copper or aluminum conical seals to help stop tapered fittings from dripping when they just won't seal no matter how tight they are. They really do work. I think the trans fitting is 5/16 (-5) https://www.gen-aircraft-hardware.com/images/pdf/as4824.pdf

I did a bit of research and spent some time emailing very knowledgeable and friendly Pat Blais (Torqueflite Patty) about this subject and here's what I found out from him: A "simple" part throttle kickdown feature was introduced on Slant 6 904 transmissions in 1967 and forward and it remained...

If there is a part throttle kick down module on my 1969 slant 6 904 valve body, can I bolt it on my 1970 727 VB?

@TrailBeast what is the part number of this part throttle kit? Can it be used with a Transgo TF2 kit?

I have the same problem, and in my case it's a problem with the insulator being loose on the manual valve lever in the transmission. In park and neutral positions the lever allows the neutral safety circuit to be grounded allowing you to crank the starter. If the insulator moves slightly on...

I've got a '69 Dart with a 340, four speed and 2.76 gears in a 8 3/4 rear. I do feel like I have to ride the clutch slightly to get it going, but I feel it's still well worth having the 2.76 for comfortable highway cruising versus the chance of premature wear on the clutch.

I've dealt with Pat Blais on ebay username T'Flite Patty. He's got a shop with many good used ones available. Excellent guy to deal with. I think the part number is 2801783.

I run a 2.76 in an 8.75 with my 4 speed '69 340 Dart with Mopar Performance cam P4452761 and I love it. Did 3 legs of HOTROD Power Tour with these gears and it was an awesome cruising gear. Cam Style: Hydraulic flat tappet Basic Operating RPM Range: 1,500-5,800 Intake...

I went with a 2.76 in my 8.75 with a 340 4 speed. Awesome cruising gear. 2600 RPM at 70 MPH with a 235/60/14 tire. Just took the car on a 2 hour trip each way to the cottage with my wife, 2 daughters and the dog and it was very, very enjoyable.

The B&M Coolers are manufactured by Long/DANA under the TRU-Cool LPD name Here is a link to their website: http://www.trucool.com/?q=products/tru-cool-lpd In Canada you can buy the Long/DANA (same cooler as the B&M) under the Mr. Transmission name at Canadian Tire. A very good...

I don't remember exactly the sounds it made. This happened around 12 years ago so I really don't remember. I do remember that the car would not move forward. Sorry.

Sounds exactly like the problem I had after I rebuilt my transmission. It spun the wheels with them off ground, backed up okay on the ground, then wouldn't drive forward and felt like it was loading up and binding internally, and wouldn't move forward. When I stripped it apart I found I...

Hi Guys, I'm looking for opinions on my new 2.76 gear pattern check. Here are some pictures. What do you guys think? Is the pattern okay on the convex and concave sides? Thanks for your help

Awesome. Thank you

I'm looking to install a Transgo shift reprogrammer model TF-2 into my 1970 A727 transmission, but when I disassembled the valve body I found a B&M separator plate installed from a shift improver kit and the original separator plate long gone. The Trans-go kit requires drilling of the original...
