Mike 57 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Today I found the limits of a 12 bolt 4.10 ring gear. A 3900 pound car and a 1.29 60 foot is is the limit for mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallaby Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I had a rear give up long ago...it lost ONE tooth from the ring gear, and it flew right out through the cover plate. The oil trail was a giveaway that something was wrong. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Peters Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 it will be ready next week That would have been my bet. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
