|
|
Hello,
I'm a new member to the DACC and need some help finding
resources.
I'm building a '56 150 2 dr and just got a Nova 12 bolt posi for
it. I want to have all the seals replaced, C-clip eliminators, and the posi checked out.
Who would you recommend locally to rebuild this rear end? I would like
to do it myself but should probably leave it to the experts.
I'm in the Collin County area.
Thanks,
GS |

I have had several jobs done by Standard Transmission of Forth Worth including 3 rear end jobs. They are reliable and reasonable priced. I know they aren't real close but I believe they are worth the drive. They also stand behind their work. They put in a new ring and pinion in my 10 bolt, but the positracton started making noise and they rebuilt again it for nothing. A word abut C clip elminators, they are not really intended for the street. This comes from Moser Engineering. I recently installed a pair of Moser axles in my car and wanted to get the C clip eliminators, but the guy told me not to do it as I stated above. So I just put in the strong axles. I have a 12 bolt in aonther car and I had it narrowed and, at the same time, he welded on the Ford type housing ends so I can use axles that do not have C clips. Welding on new housing ends is the best way to get rid of the C clips. |

Thanks for the great advice. I was hoping to find someone in the Dallas area to help me with this but Fort Worth isn't too far and I've heard good things about Standard.
I'm looking at buying my Tremec TKO from
them, too. |
