Check 12 bolt.com He list both 23" and 25" cast iron headers. Same ones Langdon sold I think. -
Swapping an A833 OD into a 1946 WD-15
BobK replied to lostviking's topic in Mopar Flathead Truck Forum
Great advice. I thought I read some place that you may have to shorten the input shaft a bit ??? Also use a clutch alignment tool to make sure things are in line. It's easy to screw things up when trying to muscle those heavy A833 into place. It should slide in and be flush to the bell before putting a bolt in. -
Looks like a New Jersey Turnpike logo on the door.

I just searched (p15d24 ford explorer disc brake swap) and I think it is the info you want.

I think the post you are looking for was on another forum group. Google HAMB forum.

Thanks for the reply. I just read all 20 pages of your build. Missed two episodes of Perry Mason reruns, but it was time well spent. Mopar Action magazine did a story on using 2003-2007 jeep liberty rear disc on 8 3/4 Mopar rears using all stock liberty parts with only minor machine work needed. The problem in my area, at the salvage yards, is finding the disc backing plates that are not rusted beyond use. Also, you had some bucket seats but then went to a bench seat? From what vehicle.

Can you share more about your rear disc brake conversion. Are you using a kit, jeep liberty set-up, or of your own design?

Is the end of the input shaft straight ? Hard to imagine a bend at the bushing end of the shaft........ but ....... I bent input shaft by using bolts to draw the tranny to the bell once upon a time.
-
The tranny should go in by hand...... you might have to wiggle it a little to get it flush to the bell housing..... and then you install the mounting bolts. Bad things can happen if you use the bolts to draw the tranny to the bell. I learned that lesson the hard way doing my first clutch job.

One thing it dosn't need is paint.............. Maybe just some "shine juice"......... Looks good as is. IMO

Andy, Dodge Red Ram hemi is 18 3/4 inches long. Chrysler is about 20 1/2 inches.

I had one of those........ turned out to be an 8 1/4 , pumpkin type rear. It was in a 62 slant six dart. I assumed it was an 8 3/4......... until I tried to swap pumpkins. I believe they were used in six cylinder cars , late 50's early 60's.
