OK. So i''m at a point where i've moved down to NC and am in the process of getting settled in. My friend and I have worked out a plan of scheduling a road trip and driving my car down from LI NY to Apex NC. Which brings up the reason for this post. Can anyone recommend any contacts down here to get a diff built? The car has an 8 3/4 with a 489 carrier and 456 gears. Not about to drive that down the way it is. I am looking to get a 489 or 742 carrier put together with a posi and a set of 355's. If I remember correctly the 742 and the 489 are at the same level give or take on strength? I know the car has the large yokes on it and also installed the Mopar kit that removed the adjuster on the pass side. Any way, the plan is to get this built and drive it up to NY in a rental along with some tools, install it and drive the car back down. The motor and tranny should have no issues for a 600 mile run as I left the car in storage in good runnning order.
Anyone got any connections down here?
Again Raleigh NC area. Will travel if a good deal is around.
