    Rear axle ID
    « on: May 01, 2013 - 04:14:10 PM »
    This axle was installed together with a  426 in a 318 Barracuda, which was set up for dragrace when I got it. 8 1/4?? Seems a bit risky....

    Replaced it with a 8 3/4 which should work OK with the 727. The 426 had done 100 miles after rebuild. Hope that was not on the strip...
