    8 3/4 Rear end
    « on: August 02, 2008 - 09:46:28 AM »
    I need an 8 3/4 rear end to replace the stock 8 1/4 that came with my 318, 1970 Challenger.
    I'm in Indiana.
    Thanks.......................

    Glen, you can post in "Parts Wanted" just wanted to let you know.

    are you going stock with your car? or modified.... I know Stroker was selling a rear, but it was more race minded...

    OOOOOPS!!!
    Sorry guys, I posted this in the wrong place.
    I'd like the stock set up, The reason I'm going to the 8 3/4 is to handle more horse power. My stock 318 will be replaced by a 400HP small block. I just need to find one of them too.......

    I have an 8 3/4 open rear from a 72 charger. not sure of the gears.  you would need to relocate the spring pearches.

    A nice upgrade for your challenger would be to install a B-body rear. A spring relocator set and a 8 3/4 rear from a late sixties Coronet or Belvedere for example would save about an inch on the inside letting you put bigger tires in the wheelwells.

    '71 and up B-body rears don't work because they are too wide

    Glennster, I have a couple 8 3/4 rear ends you could look at with axle shafts and center sections too.  Im out of Naperville, Illinois if you want to see about the distance.  Let me know if im to far or if you need pics etc.
