240 Rear End Conversion Progress 120-130

As Dale said - 240 rear ends are free (or at least mine was) and the parts are pretty reasonable (bearings, seals, pads, rebuilt calipers, and new rotors for around $400 total). I've had to replace all of the bearings, change the bolt hole pattern, cut 1" off the back of the 240 drive shaft and have it balanced with the 122 front section, fabricate new lower arms and adapt 240 upper arms. Not the most straight forward conversion by a long shot. I've also dropped in a TrueTrac limited slip differential and polished the case, but this is how I do things, or should I say - over do things. I've adapted the hard lines from the 240 to work with the 122 braking system and still have to fabricate the p-brake cable attachment. I'm using the 240 brake cable and just need to make an adapter for the front ends as they are not coming into the car.

I've test fit it many, many times and have checked everything over - it's going to work just fine.

I'll be posting pictures when it is all in and driving after Christmas.
