Comment on Daily Dart progress – Alignment by BigBlockMopar

Hello Ed,

If you’ll be doing some serious dragracing with a highstall convertor and slicks/sticky tires, go with the Dana. Otherwise I would just use the 8-3/4″.
I ordered stock length Dart-axles from Dr. Diff and sized the housing accordingly. Housingflange-widths of various cars are listed on my site aswell under Tech -> Mopar RearAxle Dimensions.
I copied these numbers from other sites, so double check if they are actually correct.

With the ‘green bearings’ which are usually delivered with new axles, you don’t want bearing-preload like on normal coned-roller bearings. So I left the axlehousing a tad wider while still maintaining good spline-engagement of the axles into the center carrier.

I’ve noticed I forgot to show a pic in my post where the center alignment-spindles are mounted in the centercarrier. I will update the story soon with this picture.

I also own a Dodge Dart, a 1972 which has a big block, and I also am in need of a narrow rear end. I wish you would give more details, and pictures, and how you determined the length you needed. To buy one out here they are $750.00 without shipping. So I would like to build my own. I have been a welder fabricator and machinist for nearly 35 years, so I can relate to some of what you did. Thanks for the information you did give. I have a dana with 355 and also a 8and 3 quarters, some people say the dana is too heavy to build. What do you think.
