Hey bartender!
Thanks for the coffee Wolfie. I need it bad today. Got to work at 6AM yesterday and left at 10PM. My pillow is beginning to think I'm cheating on her..

Morning lurkers!
Not me, after a bunch of cash on new pinion bearings and crush sleeve and carrier bearings I have learned this carrier will not fit my 73 to 76 rear end housing, maybe I can pick your brain becouse as you know , no one jumped in with info on this in another thread I started about this time last year.
Yes there is a different carrier for it. It has a offset pinion. What rear did you have in her before?
Those 2.45 gears?
You mean what Carrier don't yea, it was a peg leg..
7 1/4 or 8 1/4
No, 2.71 I/we thought this carrier was mad for the 2.71.
And what gear ratio was in it?
8 1/4..
I thought it was and higher gears.
Whats going on with the fit?
Ok, it was an open carrier It has 2.71 gears( Highest there is in these) and same as you have been building 8 1/4. Remember ?
Why does it not fit?
it runs just to far out and can not be ajusted, the carrier hit;s the housing with it at full ajustment to tray and match the ring gear and pinion... ..
That's the same rear end carrier as the old one that was in Victoria?
Looks like it is a carrier out of a truck's 8 1/4 housing .. one step forward 5 steps back
Do you have a pic of the front of the carrier where the yoke goes in not a close up but showing the "pumpkin"
