how much to pay for 7 1/4 sure grip and where to find one

[aarong5]

I would love to put an 8 3/4 in my car but can't afford it.and 8 1/4 I'd need new rims

Anyway, my main goal is lower gears. First is it near impossible to get one with 3.23 gears and if you find one what is it worth and are all going to be sure grip if they have lower gears.
(i know a guy that has one but he doesn't want to get rid of it) so I'd it worth bugging him or can they be found possible on FABO and if he would sell it.what would be fair. I'm not too afraid of 7 1/4 as I've given mine hell for 4 years with no issues with a crate 360 ...

I just want a faster take off because that is more fun than cruising90 mph in these old cars

I don't think that a 7.25 ever had Sure Grip.

Apparently they were an option because a few members here have had them and posted pictures. One was for sale several years ago on FABO. Hard to find piece.

Yes it did! Could be found under early A bodies like the Barracuda formula S cars. :burnout:

I scrapped my last one.

I had 2 centers and sold them. The center chunk is worth 300 to 350 alone. I bought 8 3/4 replacements so I can swap gears if I wish.

sure grip 7 1/4 is worth a little bit, under $300 but they still have very tiny parts inside comparted to the 8 1/4 axle, and there are quite a few gears and options available for 8 1/4

It sho nuff did. There have been several for sale here on the forum.

I don't think I'd want one. Even with a six, I would worry that if it hooked, it might break!

Mine does, made an 11 on accident and found out!

Looks like welding spider gears is in order!

The 7 1/4 suregrips go for about $400 on eBay. Our 73 Dart has one behind a 318, go figure. The 66 Formula S had one with 3.23 gears, long gone. Keep your eye out you may find one for a good price. Good Luck
