put an 8.75" axle in a 1971 Satellite that was equipped with a /6 -904 setup ? I know of Eric W's car and one like it is Kansas that are set up the exact same way. What is the sense of this when my 1971 Satellite Sebring - 318 engine- came w/a 8.25" rearend ?? Thanks -Dave
Most likely guess is that there didn't happen to be any light duty axles available at the assembly line when that car went down it. Better to lose a few bucks on a car sold with an over-specified axle than shut down production until the lower cost axle can be delivered..
