    What to look for when buying a used Sure Grip???

    Looking for some helpful tips for buying 8 3/4 rears. I have a line on a 714 case 3.23 Sure Grip. From the pics it looks to be in good shape but I don't know much about Sure Grips. Is there anything I should look for to ensure that it's as the seller says? Is there a way to check that the Sure...

    741 Question???

    A buddy has a 3.91 741 case center section that I am thinking about buying. I believe it is a small pinion, but not sure how to tell. The only issue is that it isn't a Sure-grip so I'll need to buy a True-Trac or something similar. My driveshaft is small pinion (both ends have a taper). The...

    Saginaw Pump Question

    What is the difference between the big block and small block Saginaw pump? Is it just the pulley? Turns out I have a small block pump and the pulley doesn’t line up. Can I just buy a new pulley or do I need the pump as well?

    B/E Front Suspension Compatibility???

    My buddy offered me a good deal on a brand new QA1 front suspension setup he bought for his 70 Cuda but is now going a different direction. Will the upper/lower control arms bolt up to my 69 Coronet? The QA1 website shows two different part numbers DK11-CRE1 and DK11-CRB1. The parts look identical.

    Brake Pads Wrong???

    My ‘69 Coronet came with manual disc brakes off of a ‘75-76 A Body. I decided to keep them, so I bought new rotors and pads. All of the parts matched the old parts. When I put the new pads and calipers on, the rotors turned very stiffly, and when the wheels went on, they turned a little bit but...

    When to grease suspension?

    When should I grease the ball joints, tie rod ends, etc? Does it matter if I grease them before everything is torqued or wheel alignment is done?

    Can’t turn wheels left/right???

    Yesterday, I torqued then front suspension got factory torque specs. After I was done I found I couldn’t turn the rotors left or right, it’s like they are locked firmly into place. Did I do something wrong or miss something???

    Proportioning Valve Dilemma

    When I got my 69 Coronet, it had manual disc brakes from a 74-75 Dart and a Wilwood proportioning valve. Im keeping the disc brakes and just ordered new brake lines, but I’m confused on what to do with the proportioning valve. If I keep the Wilwood I’ll have to modify/change the brake lines as...

    Upper/Lower Control Arm Questions

    I just dropped my front suspension to replace everything. My questions are, what should the upper control arm look like after the bushings are pressed out? Mine look like they have a sleeve, it’s hard to tell because everything is rusty. My question about the lower control arms is how does the...
