Greatings all, need Jag information for my Volvo 1800
Greatings all. I have just joined your Jag forum looking for information on Dana rear center sections.
I am thinking about building acustom IRS rear end to put under my souped up '72 Volvo 1800 sports car. [/align][/align]Does anybodyknow what thestub axleflange to flange width of a Dana 44Jag center section is? Here is the Dana 44 I am looking at, but I'm not sure of which years this covers: http://www2.dana.com/pdf/5329.PDFandI hope this is even a Jag unit.[/align][/align]I would like to adapttheDana 44 centersection to eithera late '70's Eldoradoor4x4 Chevy S10 CV half shafts, spindles, and control armsdepending on the width of theJag rear end. I am trying tocome up with an outside wheel flange to flange width of 54.5" to 56" The Eldorado/Toronado inner CV joints to wheel flange is 20.5" and the S10 is 18.5". I would have to use a coil-over shock and I don't know whether to use inboard or outboard brakes.[/align][/align]I think that an adapter plate could be built to mate theDana 44 stub axles to the CV joints without too much trouble?[/align][/align]They call me crazy, but I can't see why this can't work?[/align]Any information would be greatly appreciated.
