I have or seen 2 different,what I think are correct 8 3/4" pinion snubbers but don't know why the different designs? Was one used on a different case,or one used on a different body style than the other? Just trying to figure out correct application for each.Thanks for any help

I've got the first style bracket on my 73 Challenger 489 case 8 3/4. However, the rubber bumper is a different design. The bracket and bumper are original to the car. I've got an 8 3/4 out of a mid 60's C-body. It had a different bracket on it I think. I'll have to take a closer look. I know it had a different rubber bumper then my Challenger had.

Bill,

Dad's 69 GTX which has a SPO date of Oct, 3, 68 has one of these snubber brackets. Here is a pic of it in the process of being cleaned up. It is on a 742 carrier which I heard they used up till they phased in the 489 casings.

Can anyone else verify that a 70 B-body uses the short pinion snubber bracket.Puting my 70 together now and want to be sure I'm using the correct one.It didn't have a pumpkin in it when I bought the car. John.

I just went thru all the pics I have from a recent 69 Charger build,,,and it sure looks like its the shorter one.( I dont have a clear straight on pic to show it so I cant say for 100% sure )

It was a pretty unmolested car when I started the job

Doc, I don't think you meant to include the ebody for the second picture (68-69)?
