62 Dart Convertible
Well-Known Member
I have a 742 case clutch type suregrip with the tapered axle ends in my recently purchased 62 Dodge Dart. The axle shafts have 3/16” end float (!!!!) I suspect this is due to axle shaft thrust spacers not being installed in the pinion gear shafts. I haven't pulled it all apart yet to see for sure, but I have read the manual and read moparts tech archives too.
I saw a post here where problems with these thrust spacers were mentioned by Meep-Meep.
A question for the experienced - If they are indeed missing, can new ones be installed without having to split the carrier?
