Couldn't have said it better. Do you guys have/had e-bodies before? Whoever
might need measurement specs and/or pictures of a '489 series 8-3/4 e-body rear
then let me know as I've got a '74 Challenger in the yard w/the rear coming out
to be replaced w/a narrower 9-1/4 w/3.92 gears.

Will probably put the 8-3/4 in the new '93 Dak. Only problem is its got 3.23
gears in it. Maybe some 3.55's or 3.92's for it along w/a locker.

Latr,

Shane
