I found that today while doing the brakes on the new BBP 8 3/4 rear I am building for Jessicas 64 Valaint, that I am missing 1 adjuster. I think I can steal the one from my 70 Road Runner for now.....but when I go to replace it, will any 10 inch rear end work for a doner? Or am I hunting ebay for one spacificly from a 8 3/4 or a 9 1/4?
Thanks in advance!!

Are you referring to the little star wheel adjuster at the bottom? I recall getting replacements at NAPA before.

Yep, the little star thing. a buddy called me earlier, and told me you mcan buy them new.Last time I tryed( maybe 10 years ago?) I dont think they did....so I am happy!! Hope getting it ordered, or bough tomorrow, so I can get the rear into her car! Thanks!!

So far the only thing I have found you can't buy new are the split pins that go in the wheel cylinders. :shock:

Oh, thats good to know , thanks Zilla.
I grabbed the new wheel cylinders, and they are chineese made.They guy who orders parts for me at Oreily auto, KNOWS I dont use chineese parts.The ones on the rear now are Wagner brand, made in USA. I might just rebuild them if I cant get USA made stuff.I mean, the old one setting next to the new one.....the freakin' mounting bolts are even tiny! and I suspect metric.
