Last night I went to look at what was suppose to be an a body 8.75..............as always.........it wasn't, lol. But heres what I DID get.
An unknown 8.75 with the 741 non posi carrier and 3.55 gears complete backing plate to backing plate. 5 x 4.5 bp
And a bare 8.75 housing with axles. 5 x 4.5 bp as well.
All for $150.
Heres an inside shot of the ring gear.
So upon measuring and researching them, this is what I found.
The complete rear appears to have come from a 1965 A100, and is to wide to ever fit under an early A body.
The housing and axles came from a 68-70 B body. Its 3" wider than an A body 8.75. So heres my thought.
Can I fit the B body housing and axles under the early A body (63 valiant) with the 741 center section?
What back space wheel would I need to pull it off? Any thoughts? As always, thanks. Eric L
