Re: [AMC-List] rear end wanted

" anyone with a rear end for sale or can give him tips on what might 
" interchange please feel free to comment and thanks to all who might.

i've heard that a '76-'82? ['narrow track'] cj amc20 is the same or
close.  of course you need one with a centered diff, and you need to
change the jeep 5x5.5" hubs for car 5x4.5" ones.  to that end you'd
want one with 10" brakes; you can just slip late-'70s 10" car drums
on after the hub swap.

this all assumes the cj rear -is- a good match.

another possibility if you're not worried about originality, is a
'73-6 dart v8/disk 8.25" rear.  width is very close to the american,
disk brake darts have a 4.5" bolt circle [lh thd one side though], and
the 8.25 was considered strong enough for 318s.
