    U-joints - 7something" to 8-3/4..??..???

    I'm into swapping a 318cui and 904 from a 73 Valiant, with a  7something" rear  -  into my 68 Cuda, wich got an 8-3/4 rear with big u-joint,..

    I think the wheelbase is a match, so figured to use the Valiant driveshaft, - but can I get an u-joint to fit that combo..???

    Most auto parts stores offer conversion u joints. We stock them but not everyone does. Usually they can get them in a day or 2. Mopar cars only came with 2 different ujoins so just tell the guys at the store that u want a conversion joint that fits the specs for 2 chry. ujoints. Simple

    OK, - thanx..
    I knew about the small/big u-joint for the 8-3/4, - but was unsure about the 7-something" rear...  :bigsmile:
