Re: 8 3/4" rear end housing info

Actually, you can.
I did it with this a '64 Fury wagon I had.
The way I did it was to use the Green non-adjustable axle bearings. I also used the original backing plates and shoes and a set of later drums.

No you can't put a flanged axeles in a tapered axle housing.  If you could I would have done it by now.  That's it, I'm putting in a Ford Explorer axel in my car.  I have seen one with it, I'm not sure why he did it but he did.
