I have a friend who ran them in his HPD60/14-bolt equipped off-road rig with full lockers and 42" sticky SX's for years without issue. It was on the street for a while too, but then got too beat up for that since it didn't have any lights or exterior mirrors left. Engine was a Ford 400 w/...

Tom's is great to work with. As for the master cylinder, how old is it? Seals fail for various reasons, of which age and corrosion can often be a factor, so while you may be able to rebuild the MC, putting new seals in a corroded bore doesn't generally yield the best results. Given the...

Sloppy...good with a "Joe", not so good with a main bearing.

I've seen Explorer rear disc brakes on a small-bearing 9", but the backing plates had to be machined to match the narrower bolt pattern on the housing flange, and then spaced out to match the slightly longer axle offset dimension (about 1/8" IIRC). The vertical separation on the small-bearing...

1.5X diameter is pretty much the rule of thumb I was taught in engineering for safe threaded fastener engagement, and can also be applied to splined shafts, but fits, spline profiles, etc all come into play. If you look at the width of the splined front drive slugs, they're not even a diameter...

In talking with one of the tech's at Strange (Dmitri maybe?) a few years back when I was building a 9" ARB for my EB with one of their cases, he said that 1-1/16" of spline engagement was required, because at that point the strength of the splines should be greater than the torsional strength of...

I would...it doesn't hurt anything to do it now.

Given the relative scarcity and higher cost of the NV3550 versus a more or less comparable AX15, I wonder what makes you specifically want the NV? I have an NV4500 that I swapped into my '77 F150 decades ago and am thinking about moving into my EB, but if I didn't have the trans, I would go a...

I guess I should have confirmed this previously, but do the axles have the correct 5x5.5" wheel pattern for the EB? If it has brakes, what are they? Disc or drum? If it doesn't, which housing ends does it have? Given the fact that it's an aftermarket housing, it most likely has the Ø80mm...

That looks like an aftermarket 1977+ style housing center due to the V-shaped weld profile where the center joins with the tubes, as the Ford housings just had a circular weld seam between the tubes and housing. It's about 1.5 inches narrower than a factory EB 9", so maybe it was built for...

I'm interested, but I am down in Oregon. Any chance you would consider meeting in Olympia (or further south) on Sat or Sun? I'm was planning on heading up to Onalaska one day this weekend anyway.

Just to confirm, is this the Wild Horses SKU: 9662SKNET part number?

Sorry...I have extended arms, but I'm sure somebody has got that dimension handy. Are you planning on running factory radius arms or something aftermarket? I only ask, because if you have one of the aftermarket options with a threaded rod end or something similar at the frame end, position...

Or you could do something in the middle of the road cost-wise, and go 351W stroker...393/408/418/427/429/460/etc. The 408 is a a super popular option and would probably be the route I'd go since you can do a somewhat budget-minded 408 stroker build without breaking the bank. Good power...

Axle shaft diameters are different between big and small-bearing applications. Timken 514003 (big-bearing) Ø3.150" OD x Ø1.531" ID x 1.083" Timken RW207CCRA (small-bearing) Ø2.835" OD x Ø1.378" ID x .845" Edited to add SET20 aftermarket tapered roller bearing option: Timken SET20 [A20/BR20]...

The Ø80mm "big-bearing" applications have a Ø1.531 diameter for the bearing (ball bearing, not SET20 tapered roller bearing), and Ø1.500 shaft diameter for the seal, whereas the Ø72mm "small-bearing" applications run a Ø1.378" [Ø35mm] shaft diameter at the bearing and Ø1.365" diameter for the...

Bummer...and that is why I score and then chisel off my axle retainers. I think you're going to need/want a new/used axle. In reviewing the SKF Speedi-Sleeve catalog, there's a distinct lack of products in that particular size. They have Ø34mm [Ø1.339"], and then it jumps up to Ø1.375...
