You could have an optional 727 thats used on 2 barrel 360 engines, or the standard 904 which both have different drive shaft lengths.

I don't have the 904.
I have the one with the larger front pump.

I guess it would be difficult for anyone to determine what is in their car...

New Upholstery for my rear seat is the same from 68 - 74?

I just need to make sure before ordering new leather for my front and rear seats.

Any suggestions on new foam for the front seats...
$399 is ridiculous!

I found a shaft on ebay

The seller said that it measures

48” from end of u joint to end of u joint on the shaft itself.


Does this sound correct to you?

Thanks,

I never had a 727 on a 304, as long as it came from a 360 or 401 Javelin it should be correct.

Will this rear brake conversion kit work on my Javelin?

Can be used on Wranglers 90-06 and Cherokees 84-01.

Can anyone tell me if this Washer Tank will work as a replacement?
I don't have the original to compare it.
I am working on getting the exact dimensions.

Washer tanks are a wee difficult to work with depending on how you may fit other items, such as coolest recovery tanks.

The biggest issue with wide tanks is with the inner fender mounting.

Having a more squarish tank will allow less restrictions.

If you find the tank you found does not fit, you can try a 72 to 86 Jeep washer tank. They are very similar to AMC, just the top has bulge.

I would post stock tank measurements, but mine out stored away, until I can get to it for posting it's dimensions, here is one online with part number... you may find a source that has its dimensions.
