  3. I'll have to look at home, this machine hates PDFs?!
     
  4. Thanks!! I have the Frankland center and access to a lathe. Now, all I need are two 3/4 ton axles. Saved in my Tech file.

    Very nice write up, I'll keep it in my stash. This a great idea, the only problem is trying to find the 3/4 ton rear end. I looked around several times for them and they don't seem to be very plentiful, at least around here. So I ended up buying a new V8 center section.

    Nice job 26 Roadster. I am piecing together my own quick change and I am having some problems.

    I have what I believe is the correct Ford 3/4 rear end, along with another for the extra right side bell:

    The bolt circle measures 11 1/4":

    I bought some side bells off Ebay, and they measure approximately 11 9/16" :

    I also have two older ARC sprint car quich changes. The bolt circle measures 11".

    Which type of center section do I need, because nothing I have matches up to the 3/4 ton rear. Do I even have the correct Ford rear end?

    axle tubes look too big for 3/4 ton, should be 3"

    Drive em, that isnt a 3/4 ton ford timken bell.... is that for a floater brake?? Ive never seen that rear before, the bells needed should be identical to the ones he used, cast iron with big ribs atleast thats what i'm used to and i have a 41 and a 51 bell on a frankland center
