    74 cuda rear end width
    « on: January 06, 2014 - 06:47:21 PM »
    Hey folks,  I'm being told the 8 3/4 rear end in a 74 Cuda is wider then all other year Cudas. The car is a 360 4speed car.  Info is coming from inline tube when new lines came in wrong.  Thanks  shaker57

    The only reason I can see this happening is if someone asks Alan to put coil overs in their Cuda..

    Thanks Guys, I thought I was going crazy, as it turns out Inline tube are nuts.  My diff is 56.5 inches.  I'll see how good they are now to make good.  Thanks for your help  shaker57
