Ok, Picked up this 8.75 axel this weekend!!  It is from a duster, so I will store the axel with hopes of coming across an A-body to get on the road.    It is rather interesting though, the gears are 3.91 posi, and the one wheel has reverse threaded lugs?  I know I have read about cars coming from the factory this way but how rare is this?

On a side note, I am torn about weather to put the 3.91 section into the challenger or not.  I am currently running 3.55 open and wondering how bad the 3.91's would be on the highway?

If it has reverse thread lugs on one side, it is from a 70 Duster. That's the last year they did that insane thing. About the 3:91's, I wouldn't recommend for the highway. At least not more than a short trip.
