Re: [Amc-list] T5 bearing retainer



That's why It was my choice.
Searching online I've found the easiest thing to get the correct setup is to punh in for a 77 CJ with a 304 or 258.
Many new pieces come up, alos rebuilds. 
10.5" stuff, some 10.9" some 10.4" makers vary anything from centerforce to Zoom.
If you looking for higher horsepower stuff you can search vehicle sepcific parts on Summit too.
For my needs almost any of the decent stock stuff should work fine.

I plan on waiting till within a week of install day before I buy anything, cause if it doesn't work I want to be able to return it!
I have a damaged bell I got from a guy a while back I may put few holesaw holes in to be able to fully examine things and make darned sure I don't have any issues.
