    7.25 to 8.25

    Yes,.......about the same effort as any diff that never came in a particular model. It's never going to be a bolt in as factory.

    7.25 to 8.25

    I'm not going through all that cost and setup for this project. I wanted what amounted to as a factory bolt in unit. A Mopar guy in my neighborhood purchased a real nice 86 New Yorker and is intent on putting an 8 3/4 under it. It's not going to be any bolt in but he intends on making what ever...

    FOR SALE brake kits

    OK Richard,.....let me know where to send check. Just to clarify,......these are for 8.25 diff with 10" brakes. I would assume as well that these plate were originally off an FMJ body vehicle. If all is correct,.....shoot me asap where to send check and will get out Monday morning. There will be...

    7.25 to 8.25

    Well,....the bottom line here is that installing an 8 3/4 in any FMJ body is a lot more work all the way around.

    7.25 to 8.25

    Sorry,..I'm not going to agree with it being the same amount of work. FMJ's came with 8 1/4 and if one has the proper parts, it a bolt in. 8 3/4 is a custom fit and there will be ALL the required work a custom install requires. Plus,...unless you've dropped a high HP engine into one of those...

    7.25 to 8.25

    Putting an 8-3/4 under an M body car is more of a major under taking. NOTHING interchanges. I'm doing this job because after all these years, I am sick and tired of putting this car into gear and hearing that enormous destructive clunk in the running gear. Besides it's a 318 cruiser and I have...

    7.25 to 8.25

    I don't know how many of you out there have done a diff swap like I'm doing. Since this had the 2.45's I had no choice but to buy all new internals since I'm upping the ratio. I noticed what I'd call an unusual item related to the 2.45 pinion. First time I've seen the following......After...

    7.25 to 8.25

    So far I'm finding in nothing common between 7.25 and 8.25. Axles, backing plates, bearings, seals, attaching points. You name it.

    7.25 to 8.25

    Got the 8.25 torn all apart. Looks to be never have been apart since the 70's when new. Didn't come apart in what I'd call a friendly manor. 2.45 pinion is huge. Noticed one thing I'd never seen before regarding the pinion's pressed on bearing. I've never seen a pinion bearing(rear larger) that...

    7.25 to 8.25

    Thanks for the reply's. Car has 2.76 ratio and found a new 8.25 set, probably the only new set left as I've been told gear manufactures don't make any more ratios in the 2's. Have new 27 spline carrier coming as well. Spent a great deal of time going over all the info on this site regarding diff...
