Re: A-Body Axle Choice?

[Bill Maurits <Y1TopBanana73@xxxxxxxxx>]

OH NO! Not the 'F' word! Since you have a Mopar, keep it mopar! The
first thing ANY Mopar guy is gonna think when he pokes his head under
the rear of your car is "Why the hell did he use a 9"? He should have
put an 8.75 in!" Those rears are tough and the parts are available, so
there's no reason to goto a Ferd axle IMHO.

If you have trouble finding an A-body axle, I have a 70 C-body 8.75,
2.76 open, that's complete, drum to drum, that you could have cut
down, and that I'll make you, or anyone else a SMOKIN deal on! I live
NE of Baltimore btw.
