I recently picked-up a 74 Dart-Swinger that the previous owner swapped in a 360 and an 8-3/4 rear. Mistake #1 was not plling the rims to see what I got BEFORE I handed over the $$$.
At any rate, what I ended up with was an early 8-3/4 rear that has redrilled axles for the large bolt pattern, large bolt pattern drums with the 7/16 lugs and the small bolt pattern Cragars re-drilled for the larger patttern. The
NOW the question. with the work being somewhat above a hack job, I plan on re-doing it all right. So with that said, who makes a good LBP axle with the Timken bearings (not green bearings)?
