What year? Just wanna make sure of the years to look for.

Got a buddy that bought the car back that I originally bought off him. He's surprised me by doing quite a bit of work on it. I first heard that he wanted to put a 9" ford under it. He doesn't have that much power in it now. He's wanting a lower gear. So I'm trying to help him find a good used...

1971-1974 Dodge Charger, 1971-1974 Plymouth Satllite,Road Runner. I do believe.

Maybe I ought to put my "B" body 8 3/4 for sale in here ! Who knows! It might sell!!!!

Looks good . Hope you findout who built this mount. Like to get 1 made for my Satellite.

Agreed same " Brake backing plates " 8 3/4 does have the same brake backing plates. With that being said and if you pay attention you can have disc brakes back there.

I whole hardly disagree. I ran many of these cars in demolition derbys and it isn't that hard . What's the major issue? cutting the driveshaft down to fit. The springs are almost a a perfect match outside the certering pin. Replace with O.E. 8 3/4 problem solved.

Why? Just find a " B " body 83/4 and be done with it.

I,,,,,,,, wished I had " never " sent the 1 I had to the junkyard , bad car wreck. I,,,,,,,,,,,, " wished I could find / had another 1. Badly. Great thread . Keep it going!

What differential are you working on?

Just throwing this out there ( doesn't mean anything ). A 10" brake shoe is a 10" brake shoe. Where your get a general differences will/should be in the width/thickness of your shoes because of the brake drum itself. That's where your differences will be or mean in the numbers. #2; could also...

Hadn't been following the thread, but am curious. What did you find out? Anything yet?

I guess so. Irratating.

Seems like Rock Auto can't tell the difference. They kept sending motor mounts for the right side.

Okay so we all know that the driver side/ Left side motor mount's different from the left. I tried Rock Auto a couple times and got the wrong 1 every time. I'm not into bushing or using washers to make it fit. So where do you guy & Gals go to get the correct motor mount? Edit: I just had...
