Just wondering what people are running for a carrier/axles/ axle tubes in their pullers. I blew up my coarse spline and have a fine spline with 30 mm axles out of a hydro that i would like to replace it with. Any one do this? Any advise?

Thanks

Dodge 7.25 rear carrier and axles. Axles will need to be machined and cut down and end plates welded and axle housings will need to be bored for larger needle bearing. Usually 1 1/8".

The 1" fine spline axles will drop right in without any machine work. Any other scenario requires machine work.

I would like to find some 1" fine spline axles, but what i have to work with is the 30mm. I looked at McMaster Carr and found seals, but couldn't find any needle bearings. would there be any other place to look for bearings?

If you have the axle housings from the 30mm setup you can shorten the flange on the left one to work with the cast iron transaxle.

How did you machine that tube down?

I rough cut it with a band saw then faced it on a lathe.

I used the 30mm setup on a cast rear i just opened up the tubes to accept the bearings from the donor. looks stock til u take the dif cover off to reveal that beefy carrier. sorry dont have any pics handy

farmallgray I got that pinion out of that rear if you are still interested in it Thanks Ricky

Last night I verified that a Ford 7.5" Limited Slip diff WILL FIT inside an IHCC cast iron housing.

I haven't made the LH bearing support or outer tubes yet, but stay tuned.

That could work for non pullers too!

yep, it sure could... and yes, it does require some machine work, but it certainly does fit, and I've meticulously noted and photo'd it for anyone that has a sincere sickness like mine:
