Yoke will be different, and driveshaft will be 4" too short. 904 has a shorter tail than a 727 too.

I have one laying around the shop for a 904/8.75 that I had shortened just a little too much.
When we get back from Spring Break I'll find some time to get over there and measure some things. I'll also ask Ben if he was running a 904 or 727.

I'm about ready to ask Angie for some "kitchen passes" so I can start spending a little more time over at the garage. Only sneaking in 30-45 minutes once or twice a week is never going to get anything done.

I'm thinking that if I just get one night a week where I go straight to the garage and work until I'M ready to quit (probably about 2 A.M.) I could make some real progress. That doesn't get the boys over there with me, but at least I'd be getting SOMETHING done.

Sorry to vent. Just feeling a little "behind the power curve". :lol:

Beggar's. There's one right by my house too John.

Unfortunately there is not one by my shop. There is a Monical's though. :D
Beggars is alright; never really cared for Monicals; (there are like 4 of them nearby) I tend to like Aurelios, who has several locations; Beecher, Homewood (the original) and (IDK if this one is still there) Frankfort, seemed to be the better choices of the bunch because of the brick ovens; the pizza comes out less greasy somehow vs a newer steel wall oven.....
I have yet to try Giordano's though.... I think the closest one is Plainfield. there is a place in Glenwood that is real good too; Sanfrantellos I think is the name?
Aurelio's in Homewood was my ex wife's favorite pizza place in the world. I was never fond of the pizza, but their pasta was excellent. There is a carry out right on Sauk Trail across from Chicago Dough.

Giordano's is pretty good, been to a few of them.

Best thing at Monical's is a Family Pleaser. Huge salad with red French dressing and pizza with a cracker thin crust. Keep the dressing to put on the pizza and it will almost taste like something besides crappy pizza. :lol:

Rob, vent away bro. :D
