Hi Miller, thankyou for reply, tapers are obvious, my question is can that bar be used either way {as in spinning round so left side goes to right, tapers wouldn't allow just turning it over}as it does fit and may offer different clearance options. Manuals/ google aren't that descriptive
Hi all,
On my 62 Polara can someone tell me which way round the centre drag link should go? looks to me like it can go either way which would give options for oil pan clearance
Thankyou, easy one when you know .
Yes I am still thinking of leaving the beam in, just perhaps need reassurance that it would hold up ok with a big block in there. Appreciate the springs would need poss refurb and better shocks but I would also want to upgrade the brakes, not necessarally to disc just better modern drums , its...
Hi all, I have a project 40s pickup truck I want to fit a 440 into. Right now its got the original beam axle up front, what cheap option front subframe would you guys recommend without cutting off the front rails. IE Volare , whats out there option wise. Also looking for an 8 3/4 rear axle. Want...
Hi all, my '62 Polara is apart now, new floor going in, have a '67 440,4 speed for it plus an upgraded 8 3/4 rear. Can I swap in a later K frame to move the engine back a little? If so which one is best and then what else? I guess the trans mount, again what do people use here. Clutch linkage? I...
Sorry not really B body request but my son with house commitments still dreams of us re commisioning an old truck back from the grave. I can see it being me funding most of the project but thats ok if it gives us some time together on saturdays. So open minded right now, just seeing what you...
Hi all, I have a 440 in my 62 Polara, as we know the engine sits about an inch further forward on the stock K frame . I want a new oil pan and want to know whats 'the one' to go for that gives good clearance but I want to retain a stock look so not really looking for a boxy, racey look. The pan...
If youre thinking of using an AMD floor pan FYI they are out of stock and wont be reproducing anymore for 6 months.I searched all over and found two at Kramers, they now have ONE left so good luck with that
Thanks Dryheat, spoke to AMD direct and they claim back in stock May, i just cant hang on that long, what did you do in the end? I really dont want to patch it up, even thought of trying to get it out and repair but doubt it would save. I managed to get the rear footwells so thats something.
Does anyone know who would have an AMD foorpan part number 400 1462 for a 1962 Polara in stock, or even somone on here got one for sale! Seems parts suppliers just order and ship direct from AMD who are themselves out of stock until May. I have a vehicle leaving for UK from NJ in the next few...
Well it seems questionable that later shafts will work in my original axle, I have looked at other axles for sale on here but all too wide. I prefer to keep my vehicle mainly Mopar so I think I will keep looking at options here in Blighty
Thanks fo all replies
I have a 62 Polara with the original axle that I want to upgrade, stock open drive centre, taper shafts and 10"brakes. Being here in the UK parts arent that easy to come by, I could go all new at a cost, another thought is......can I put later style shafts and say 11"brakes in my casing? I know...
