    SURE GRIP 8.75-489/355 .....ISSUE please advise !!!

    i'm dealing with a similar issue with the green bearing failure. I have found the preload spacer that is almost if not exactly like a piece of axel that's about an 1 1/2 wide and looks nothing like the link above, where its a 2 piece button. i'm told i need to remove it so the green bearing...

    Green Bearings

    I found it ironic that the same thing happened to Steve and Dave on the 100th episode of roadkill garage, also on the Power Tour. East Coast, but same side. Also new and they only made it a few hundred miles. I wish I knew if they had removed the preload spacer. I'm putting in new one's...

    Green Bearings

    besides the fact that they handlined in without a flex line I thought that they were light weight and I think you could change pads only with pliers and a screw driver. I doubt in my lifetime they will require it though. What drives your dislike?

    Green Bearings

    Update for anybody that cares: As this is only 1 of 2 cars I have that I installed these in I was ordering 2 pairs first for obvious reasons and a spare set. I put a note to the Dr. diff folks that the first set smoked after 500 miles or less and they replied with: Wilwood brakes are not...

    Green Bearings

    It gets driven to and from the valley for the spring and fall fling a couple times a year, 25 miles each way and around town etc. Another 100 miles or so at the very most a year. I know I should enjoy it more. I have a demanding job and several rentals and I'm a cheap ass so spare time to enjoy...

    Green Bearings

    Its been a minute, but I thought there was a snap ring that held the backing plate then a 5 bolt beef bracket that sandwiched it to the axel. I'm dead set on keeping those baer brakes on the rear with the parking brake. I would stack my braking against any of these modern cars excluding tnhe ABS...

    Green Bearings

    I did 2 of these like that. The other one is a big block 4sp. Going back was my thought train as well. I'm all but sure I tossed all of that stuff. Why cant you run the rear disc brakes with the timkins?

    Green Bearings

    I installed a set of green bearing had to be 4 or 5 years ago but less than 500 miles ago. Long story short, the Lt rear went out while headed to Las Vegas on the Power Tour. Of course a couple of Mopar Guys pulled over to help and a Motor Trend producer as well. At the time I thought the center...

    ENGINE TRANS DEGREE STOCK

    I look at that and I’m sure if you maybe made it thru high school etc. its easy but a lot of math. my engine is one degree drop down in front so I’m gonna start with fabricating some new mounts to get at least a 2 degree sloop down towards the rear and I’ll read all of that again the TREMEC app...

    ENGINE TRANS DEGREE STOCK

    Does anybody know off hand at what angle the engine and trans sit before you go changing everything and make your ebody shake at highway speeds. I just got to the point where I've narrowed it down to the drive line angles. After putting in that XV Motor sports suspension in. before selling it to...

    WTB 71 Challenger Grille

    It took me a couple 2 or 3 weeks to get my hands on one last year I bought a couple with the intention of having one or both scanned and printed or an injection mold made. I even spoke with a guy over at classic industries about why they haven't re-popped them and was told they did everything...

    E body 3 point seat belts

    I've looked through some prior posts but really didn't find but one guy comment on the subject. I've never liked the look of the shoulder harness on these cars the little bracket that holds the belt when not in use etc.. As we all know these cars have little or no bolster in the front seats...
