Re: Converse V8 kit questions 200

Greg,

The Spicer unit is designed for truck use - I don't know which truck. The shaft did need to be modified. It uses a Spicer splined section and bearing. It's not a direct replacement for the Volvo. It does mount to the stock crossmember, however,

I could've had this center "assembly" installed in the middle of the Volvo driveshaft, but in the end we just made a whole new drivehsaft with more easily available, cheaper and stronger u-joints. The whole thing was about $350.

The drivehsaft sections are 2.5 inches.

Peter
