    8 & 3/4 question
    « on: April 15, 2008 - 04:03:37 PM »
    I know that a #2 housing uses a different ring and pinion than the #9 housing.  My question is what does an X housing use?  Is it the same as #2 or #9?
    Thanks,
    Tod

    I don't recall an X housing. Do you have a picture?

    Big pic so you can see the X.  They made them I just don't know if anything interchanges with 2 or 9.

    There should more numbers on the other side.

    It's just another X above the filler plug.  No numbers.

    Ive heard that the 741 cases were marked with an"X". If its a 741 than it will not exchange the ring and pinion with a 742 or a 489, you'll need a r&p for a 741.

    I will look up a 741 case and see what I can find.  Thanks.

    I have never seen one without ANY numbers.  :dunno: Maybe it is out of that '67 Challenger that was in HOT ROD a while back!  :thinkerg:

    72bluNblu you are right.  The X case or housing is the 741.  It does not seem that any part of it is interchangeable with the #2 or #9.  Thanks.

    If you know anything about 9 &1/4.  I need help on this one also.

    Glad I could help! :2thumbs: Ive got an "X" case 741 in my challenger and was doing research ( just bought a 742 posi 3rd on ebay). Not sure what kind of posi is in the 9.25, doesn't look like the clutch type but I could be wrong. Good luck!

    On the 9.25 I am just trying to figure out if it is a sure grip or an open unit.  I thought it was a sure grip and then was questioned about it.  It is on Ebay and I don't want to mislead anyone.  Thanks again.
