Hey guys, been away for a while and haven't been posting, been so damn busy! I was removing a crank bolt and stopped the motor by using a wrench in a flexplate hole, well it slipped a bit and made a dent in one of the holes. I'm not sure if it's bad enough to pull the trans and replace it. I'll...

I am about to grab some axle shafts to build my rear end for my dart but want to confirm that I can actually use the third member that I have. Its an early case from 1957 I believe, its a 741 case with 4.10 cone type sure grip. Would regular a body axle shafts work? I know that the cone type...

I'm wanting to start the swap over to an 8 3/4 pretty soon and want to start getting parts together. As it sits I have a stock housing, and the third member, I am also planning on swapping all the brake hardware and what not from my old 7 1/4. The parts I know I need are SS leaf springs, axle...

I just picked up a third member today, really good price and it's in great shape (so I think anyways) spins real nice, and is nice and clean. 4.10 gears and a sure grip, come type I think as I can see the springs? My question is the case, I believe it's a 742 case, but I don't find the...

Just wondering what the torque specs are for arp torque converter bolts for a 904 are. I already used these bolts once and I don't have the instruction sheet anymore and it's not available online. I have the stock torque specs, but I know th arp spec is a bit more. The part number I have is...

I am adding some power to my motor and adding some 3.91 gears to the rear of my 73 dart, and just started thinking about the transmission. The trans is a 999 with a low first and second gears. My old 360 had mid to high 300s for power, I really am just putting in a bigger cam (hydo flat tappet...

Unfortunately this thread was lost due to the server crash. But I am still trying to figure out what to do with my 8 3/4 to fit slightly wider tires. As was stated in the previous thread the dr diff relocation kit moves the leafs in 1/2 an inch, but the rear end that I have the spring...

I was just going through a few threads on here and kinda made me think that I may have a problem with my trans. Its a 904 and I installed a tf2 shift kit in it (followed instructions closely). When shifting into 2nd it is nice and firm like it should be, but the 2-3 shift isn't firm, its smooth...

I am looking for some new gears for my dart, and am not sure what would be best. I have a rebuilt 360, comp xe268 cam eddy heads etc, so its got some power. A factory torque converter (want to change out soon) and a 999 trans with a low first gear set, and 28 inch tall tires. I know I need...

I just found a center section close to me. It's a 3.55 posi unit, ready to go and bolt in. He wants 770 shipped to my door. I can probably get it for 700 shipped. Is this a good price? What should I ask to verify and make sure it's as he says it is?

I have been putting on a few miles on my dart lately and there are friday night track days near me, and I'm planning on going this friday. I want to take my dart out to just see what it will run with the new 360. Only problem is it still has the 7 1/4 rear end in it...I'm still putting together...

I need to start putting together a new rear end for my dart. The stock 2.76 geared 7 1/4 is holding up but I don't know for how much longer behind my new 360, and the gears are killing it off the line. I have an 8 3/4 housing and two 3rd members. Both are open differentials, they both need...

I've been driving around my 73 dart for a while now, and usually I always have the windows open so I never hear any noises on the inside, I can only hear the exhaust (Pretty loud). Today I drove to work with the windows down because it was a bit cold out this morning, and going slow up to about...

I recently got my 360 going in my dart and I've started to drive it around a bit. No issues with the motor whatsoever. But my problem is that it doesn't seem to takeoff from standing very good. Once it gets some speed it's pretty good though. I haven't really womped on it completely yet...

Last night I put the converter bolts in my car. 73 dart, 360, 904 trans. I first installed the torque converter in the trans, spun it around for a while until I heard all the clunks meaning it seated properly. I then put the trans on the motor, I could easily spin the converter and the trans...

I'm in the final stages of getting my car all ready to start and I came to the issue of what to do with the transmission dust shield. The car is a 73 dart, 360/904. I left it out currently so I could more easily put the converter bolts in but now I'm wondering If I have to put it in at all...

I recently installed a tf2 shift kit in my 904, I did everything that the instructions said, including grinding down the tv valve...I've been reading that I maybe shouldn't have done this. What will happen now that is grinded? and if its bad to do that modification why does trango recommend it...

I just finished installing the motor and trans in my car, and as I was putting the torque converter in I noticed that It has a little weight on it, its not very thick and its about 1.5 inches long. It came off of my old 318 which are internally balanced, and therefore a neutral balanced...

Yesterday I was installing a transgo tf2 **** kit in my 904 (turns out it was a 999!) Everything went well as I followed the instructions carefully. But then I hit the last page talking about the band adjustment and installing a spring on the rear band adjuster. I measured it with a caliper and...

Kinda surprised and confused on this one. I was just cleaning all the sludge and dirt off of my 904 trans so I could install the shift kit and from whats written on it its definitely not the original trans that came with the car. The car is a 73 dart swinger with a 318, well now it has a 360 in...

So I was just given an A-body 8 3/4 axle housing, its been reinforced, the spring perches have been moved in and its been shortened about an inch. Nothing drastic. I already have a 3rd member and everything, but I need axles shafts. The plan is to use it in my dart. How do you measure for...

As I was removing the motor and trans in my 73 dart (318/904) One of the transmission lines that comes off of the radiator was stripped and wouldn't come out, so my last resort was to cut it. The passenger side line is fine. I've looked online for replacement lines but they seem to stop at 72...

So I was pulling apart my 904 from the 318 that it was attached to on my 73 dart, and thought the torque converter was a little too clean, It looked new. I know they are usually pretty clean but even the teeth were clean, Its spotless! Maybe I just haven't taken enough apart to see them all...

I'm installing a rebuilt 360 into my 73 dart swinger. The car currently has a 318 and a 904 trans, and I'm wanting to put in a 727. I have a balanced flex plate for the 904 as the 360 is externally balanced but changed my mind as a 727 will be able to handle the power better. The 360 came...

So I've come across a bit of a set back, well not really, I just have to find another A-body 8.75 rear end. I was going to use what I thought was an 8.75 in an old Cuda, but because it was in the grass it couldn't see it was actually a little 7.25. The plan was to put that in with my new...

I need a new rear end for my dart. A 400 ish HP 360 is going in and I know for a fact my 7 1/4 won't be very happy if I keep it. It's really only a street car so I figure an 8 1/4 or an 8 3/4 would work well. My dart has factory front disc brakes and the big bolt pattern. What rear should I look...
