do you people actually build cars. just re-arc your springs yourself. it's not hard to do. take them apart and use a vice or two boards several inches apart and hit the spring with a big freaking hammer!! i made a tool that uses a bottle jack. easy peezy

i may have come off as a bit of an ***. sorry. it always seems funny when you get replies that are odd. to each thier own i guess. i built a henry j street gasser with fender wheel headers in 2000 and have about 50 some thousand miles on it. i drove it every day for 4.5 years and never had any...

i know most mopar people think these cars are the holy grail. they are not. i build what i want the way i want. if the matching number bs is for resale that's fine. i am 74 and will have this car until i die. so i don't care about resale. i have already had it for 33 years. also, i like to be...

i have a '63 plymouth belvedere with a 440 engine. i want to go fenderwell headers. where can i get a set reasonably priced. thank you

i've got a '63 imperial 413 motor i am going to rebuild hopefully just a re-ring. it will go into my fed. i am aware that the bottom end is the same as the 440 but what i would like to know is why is a rebuild kit so much more for the 413. if everything except the pistons is the same why so...

see that's all i was looking for! thanks. on another note, the reason for this is the 9 inch i was trying to put in it has come with it's own problems. i wanted to use the ford because it had the ratio i wanted. i already had a rebuild kit for the ford too. i know of a place that will respline...

i am not sure you all get what i am saying. all i want to know is, can i put the pumpkin and the axles in the early housing. i know i have to cut and respline the axles. it's just a matter of measuring the early ones and cut the newer ones the same. what is this thrust block? if i use the same...

i have a '63 belvedere with the stock rear end. i know you all will say just get a later rear end and i have several ones too. what i would like to do is use the pumpkin and axles from one and put them into my original. i don't want to have to cut down the later one to match the width of the...

thanks guys for the info. i'll let him know his options.

a friend of mine has a '58 hemi in a '56 ford truck and he asked me if you can change it to a floor shift. the trans is the one that came with the hemi. i kind of remember somewhere i heard that you can but i am old so who knows. i suppose he could change the trans to a late model 727 right?

1963 plymouth belvedere =everything

i am not sure everybody got what i was laying down. i have a'71 dodge 8 3/4 rear, actually several, i just didn't want to have to narrow that housing to fit my car is all. from what i think i get, it would be easyer to just narrow the '71 rear, so that is what i will do. i have done quite a few...

i am wanting to change the rear to a later model type and i heard that i can just change the third member and the axles to the later style. are the axle bearings the same size in both housing? i know i have to cut and respline the axles. the whole reason for this is because i don't want to cut...

as it says, that's what i have and it seems nobody has one rebuilt. please don't say rebuild mine. it is really worn out. i did that and it didn't last. leaks and massive play. i want to get firm feel or steer/gear but nobody answers or calls back. what i would like to know is, what years can...

oh crap! i also forgot to tell you i have already swapped in a '69 318 so i got rid of the push button stuff. i would probably use the '63 trans in something else.

i should of told you it's not in car yet. i got a 413 for my '63 belvedere and it had this trans on it. i have a '76 727 i can use but i was wondering whether i should change it or scrap it. thanks for the replies too.

tell me what is involved in changing a push button trans to a regular shifting trans.

some interesting replies. dipstick, i need axle seals. i think i will go with national #6241s. thanks for the replies.

i am having no luck buying these. i have bought them from az and the rock but, they were for the newer rears. this is for my '63 Belvedere. does anybody know where to get them. these are the seals that are in the retainer. i would like to get the right ones before i go broke. it's not worth the...

i guess it would be helpful if you knew what i was doing. i have a '63 belvedere and i had a leaking pinion seal and now it is howling. i also have a dodge pickup box trailer with the tapered axle rear. i don't know exactly what year it is though. i was just going to use the shims from the dodge...
