I have a very nice 8 ¾ drum to drum rear axle assembly that will fit the A-body cars. It was originally from a 68-70 B-body but had the spring perches moved in so that it would fit the A-body cars. This entire rear axle assembly was taken out of a 74 Dart Sport mild bracket car. It had 9x30 slicks on 15x7 cop car steel wheels and it fit perfectly. The Duster, Demon and Swinger models work better since they have the larger wheel wells. The flange to flange measurement is 54 15/16. The housing has been cleaned and painted, the axles are the LBP design that was used in the housing so they are much easier to get. They also have the green bearings installed and it has the 10x2 ½ rear brakes and drums. An extra set of 10x2 ½ brake shoes are included. The center section is a 742 case, that has also been cleaned and painted, with the earier clutch type sure grip that is in excellent shape. I will install whatever street gear ratio that you want up to a 4.57 ratio. The 3.91 ratio would be $25 extra. All new carrier and pinion bearings and races will be installed with a new pinion seal. Currently the smaller 7260 pinion yoke will be installed but can easily be fitted with the larger 7290 type pinion for whatever the cost to get one works out to be. There will be new steel brake lines, new wheel cylinders and a new flexible brake line installed so this is a direct bolt in. Id like to get $1295.00 for the entire drum to drum rear axle assembly. Shipping would be done via truck freight and I can assist with arranging it, palletizing the assembly, and bringing the rear to the truck terminal for a small fee. The picture shows a cones style sure-grip unit but when I disassembled it, the unit was junk so I got a very nice earlier style clutch type unit. The second pic shows the sure-grip unit along with the axles.
