8 speed axle swap

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if you can convert a 1 inch axle trans into a 1 1/8 inch axle trans?

Well you can swap the entire transmission, but if your trying to convert one transmission from one to the other I wouldn't bother.

it can be done but you need a lot of stuff out of a 1 1/8 axle rear better to just buy the other rear

You can convert a 10 pinion to a 8 pinion. Takes a little work but less than converting one with one inch axles.

I would think that you will need to turn out the inside of the transmission axle housing to accept the new 1 1/8" outer bearing...and seal. :)  Probably not worth it when you can get the trans halves for the 1 1/8" for not much money.
