59-64 Chevy B-Body 9-Inch Housing And Axle Package

Currie 9-inch Housing and Axle Packages for 1959 thru 1964 Impala, Biscayne, Bel Air, El Camino, Brookwood, Kingswood, Nomad, and Sedan Delivery, B-body vehicles with 3-link suspension, are built to match the vehicles stock axle width, pinion offset, suspension mounting locations and wheel bolt pattern - for a straightforward hassle-free installation

Housing and Axle Packages require a 9-inch third-member assembly and compatible brake package to complete the rear end. Requires assembly of components before installation

Narrowed option to accommodate vehicles running wheel skirts and reverse offset smaller diameter wheels, like those used typically on Lowriders

Included Standard Features

		Currie Centurion Housing - Classic notchback looks in a new, high-strength, American-made housing that features 3-inch diameter axle tubes and CNC machined face flange for a flat leak-free seal - all joined together with strong, attractive welds
		Drain Plug - Located on the bottom center of the housing, this standard feature makes routine maintenance much easier - no more removing the brakes, axles, and the third member for a simple oil change.
		Suspension Brackets - Heavy-duty laser cut 3-link brackets are installed on the housing to match the stock OE locations and fitment for a direct bolt-in fit
		Billet Housing Ends - Currie billet late model Ford Torino large bearing housing ends are CNC machined for accuracy and feature provisions for internal or external axle oil seals
		Alloy Axles - Currie Performance 31-spline 1541 alloy axles feature vehicle correct bolt pattern and wheel studs - Tapered axle bearings shipped loose
		Bearing Retainers - Heavy-duty retainers assure positive bearing retention and full seal engagement for a long trouble and leak-free service life

NOTES:

Axle Bearings - Axle bearings are shipped loose, not pressed onto the axles, to enable brake components to be installed 

Lubrication Requirements - 9-inch rear ends use a high-offset hypoid gear design requiring severe duty gear oil with API GL-6 rating. Use of oil not meeting the GL-6 rating will damage the gears and bearings and void the Currie Warranty.

4-Link Suspension - If you have a B-body with 4-link suspension, give us a call, and we'll build a rear-end with the required brackets

Aftermarket Brakes - Currie crate rear-end conform to the ABCS (Aftermarket Brake Configuration Standard). This allows brake kits that use this standard to easily be changed or upgraded without modifying the housing or axles. ABCS brakes use a 2.5-inch brake space with late-model big-bearing Ford housing ends and a 2.80 center hole in the drum or rotor.

Wheel Studs - Currie crate rear-ends use standardized-shank Currie Enterprises wheel studs that allow the following wheel studs to be interchangeable in the axles without drilling: 12mm, 7/16, 1/2, and 1/2 x 3-inch competition

Narrowed Option - Currie offers a narrowed option that is 3 inches overall narrower than stock width to accommodate vehicles running wheel well skirts, with installed smaller diameter reverse mount wheels typically found on Lowriders and Lowrods
