Hey All,
Okay, I got a tip from 70_Steve to whack driver's side tie rod off, have threads machined onto the rod and get a second pass side end to make up for the approx 3" wider 76 knuckle width. So, I think I'm past that hurdle.
Now I'm struggling to understand why my Dana 30 and Dana 44 have different track bar mounts on them?! All of the vendors are showing it's the same track bar for 66 - 75 regardless of which diff they had.
Both axles have the same threads, but my D30 clearly has a "shoulder" and the D44 does not. I'm looking at an adjustable one from Tom's if I do have to replace it. Anyone know why a 70 w/ a Dana 30 would be different than a 74 w/ a Dana 44?
Thanks for the help! B2
