Not a locker, as Remcharger said clutch style suregrip.... Set up very tight...And it didn't need to be, the ramps cause it to grab very effectively... But when not loaded it releases and turns corners without spinning the inside wheel
Just my opinion, it looks like a Detroit (or other brand, grizzley?) locker to me.
A new 8 3/4 locker alone is around $800.
As said above, it is certainly NOT a spool.
Here's the finished piece taking a breather and cooling off after what seemed like days of nuclear white light welding. It got seam welded both on the inside and the outside.
Now it gets filled with water overnight to check for any leaks, then if all goes well, final prep goes into affect to...
My go-to welding genius (AJ) is now a retired certified military grade welder. He willingly hung up his welding gloves and rods in his shop of 60 years to enjoy his later years out in the world, then I came along with my phone calls stating:
"What? retirement? WTF! No one retires in New York!"...
Do you suppose that P47 might be photoshopped or something? It looks strange that all the control surfaces seem to be in a neutral position with one wing mostly missing. And that the landing gear still dropped down.
Not a big deal, but the idler arm mount is of a newer frame. And with the extra pics, it looks like the idler arm is too long . Steering box may be from a newer car as well.
As other have said, I would replace the tie rod ends and sleeves. Another thing to check - it looks to me like your sway bar is installed upside down. The "hump" in the center should go up. Yours appears to go down.
That's the '66 and later articulated kickdown setup. If you can get all the pieces, it will work too. Chrysler came up with this because the engine moved back about 2" closer to the firewall in 1966, and did not have room for the earlier one-piece rod to work.
Thanks Darter6 I was told it is a spool hub??? originally, acts like something you want at the drag strip and this car had been used for that, inside wheel hops when turning, just not what I want unfortunately
Don't laugh, It works and it cost nothing via found 3/4 plywood on the street.
Knowing that aluminum likes to take a walk in the park when introduced to intense heat, I made this stabilizer jig to keep it in place and shape while enduring the kitchens heat. A steel plate would have been better...
I bought a Hughes torque converter thru Summit, I posted about my experience with them.
What pissed me off was Hughes wanted me to send it back without explaining to me that they sold me the wrong torque converter. They sold me a weighted converter, and I have an internal balanced stroker crank...
I looked through my '64 Polara pictures, but could not find a clear picture of the bracket. Basically, it has two fingers that stick up to guide the kickdown rod. If you could find a 1963-1965 Chrysler in a junkyard, it would have this bracket.
