Just an FYI for anyone in need of axles for a truck 8 3/4" rear end. Station wagons use the same axle shafts as the trucks. Might make someones search easier...
Its been a while since I poked my head in here. Figured I would give an update on the truck.
For those that dont know- its a '78 Warlock with a 5.7 VVT Hemi and Viper 6 speed swap.
Rebuilt the suspension and lowered it this spring. Also added nitrous to it and had it dyno tuned so it wouldnt...
I just bought a '96 F150 and it needs tires badly. It has the tiny 235/75-15 on it now, but the factory upsize was a 265/75-15. I would like to go to the larger tire, but I want the speedo to read correctly and since I am a Mopar guy I do not know how the Fords adjusted for tire size.

I have slicks...

Just curious as I half ass tried to measure mine while I was cleaning it out after my in tank pump install. Got about 28 gallons in there, spilling some as I filled it of course. That number just seems odd.
Here is a pic in case someone can ID it for me. Not the best pic- cant really tell the...
Hello,
Joined this forum to help test out the new software. Also, hoping this forum gains a little traffic at the same time because I have a 1978 Dodge Warlock that I just completed a 5.7 Hemi/ Viper 6 spd swap on.
I have been a member of BBD from almost the start, and have moved on to FABO...
