Re: 1975-Specific 7.5 5 lug swap questions

Well strip is where you will be at a disadvantage... WHAT are you expecting to do? How often? The build: 4.10 is better than 4.11 as even GM has realized that as they do not use that ratio anymore. 4.11 is 9 - 37 4.10 is 10 and 41 MORE teeth give you more touch point and bleed the heat off better so...

Re: Pontiac 8.2 carrier

Yah likely the seal is just dried out :( PReload - yes normally the correct preload is with a NEW crush sleeve and the posi or open carrier removed when figuring. IN THIS case...

Re: Jaguar diff with cutlass gears

That is VERY interesting. I am glad we could supply your need for the gear. It is truly neat how just about anyone with some skill can get machining done to create and solve a problem . How did you know the gear mesh would work as far as pinion engagement to the ring being the same as GM engagement?
