Glenn, if it helps, the Maverick/Granada/Mustang units are a perfect width for your T, and feature easy to cut off spring perches only. They used them from mid 60's to late '70's.

Do you have the axles too? There are different lengths, is why I ask. Smart way to go buying a new housing and stuffing it with used parts.

BTW, I know we aren't supposed to have discussions on a For Sale item, but I think this info might help you. You might want to look into buying the backing plate/drums setup new from Currie. My Son just bought one for his 9 incher, and when he did the math it wasn't much more than going to AutoZone and buying parts to rebuild his old setup. Autozone and others get better than $ 100 a drum for new ones.Last edited by Itoldyouso; 11-02-2007 at 03:53 PM.

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
