    92 up is the larger ring gear. But yeah, stupid six lug.

    FMJ Differentials

    The 8 1/4 went to and 8 3/8 ring gear in the early 90s. The larger gear and limited slips are all compatible. Just have to watch for the even later 29 spline axles

    1977 Gas Tank Removal

    The filler neck does not have any fasteners at the tank. If it is the flat tank, you are in luck, since those are available. Get hose that is rated for fuel injection, and preferably compatible with ethanol, it will last longer. Regular hose essentially melts in the presence of ethanol.

    1977 Gas Tank Removal

    Expect to replace all of the hoses to the tank. Remove the full neck before you drop it down if you can. Make sure it is as empty as possible. Be damn careful with the hardware and the straps, not to mention that the tank you have is pretty much unobtainable.

    The difference between police and civilian bars are the bushing at the control arm. "Police Bars" had Moog sourced, and Civilian were TRW sourced. The spring rates are the same

    Possible bump steering or slight resistance in steering when turning slight left

    There is an adjustable valve on top of the steering gear. There is a procedure in the service manual for adjustment. Sounds like yours is just off a tiny bit. There are two screws in the body with the hose fittings, you loosen them slightly and bump the valve to the left or right to adjust...

    727 swap

    The yoke is different, it seems like it was around 4 inches shorter when swapping to a 727. If you need a yoke, let me know, I have a few extras.....

    Dual Exhaust or Big Single

    Adding the flex pipes can help with exhaust clearance when you have a tight fit, allows the pipes to be more firmly mounted. For guys with headers, it usually help prevent cracking and collector gasket failure.

    82 mirada 360 magnum exhaust headers?

    I went with the Doug's for ground clearance. They are also super easy to install or remove. Hooker, Hedman, Pacemaker and Summit are all similar in they go under the steering on the driver side. There are a ton of no brand copies of the Hookers, out there as well. There were even some...
