Included Standard Features

Centurion Housing   Currie Centurion Housing - Classic notchback looks in a new, high-strength, American-made housing, that features an integrated drain plug, 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 so much easier - no more removing the brakes, axles, and the third member for a simple oil change.
     
Suspension Brackets   Suspension Brackets - Coil spring pads and control arm mounts are installed in the OEM locations for a direct bolt-in fit
     
Billet Housing Ends   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
     
Performance Axles   Alloy Axles - Currie Performance 31-spline 1541 alloy axles, feature vehicle correct bolt pattern and wheel studs - Tapered axle bearings shipped pressed.
     
  Bearing Retainers - Heavy-duty retainers assure positive bearing retention and full seal engagement for a long trouble and leak-free service life

 

 

 

 

NOTES:

1967 Chevelle - 64-66 Chevelles had a flat style spring pad on the housing which was used up to early 67. This housing may be used in your 67, but you must first check the spring pad type to make sure it is the right one for your vehicle

Axle Bearings - Due to the many brake options and associated variations in bearing retainers available, the axle bearings are shipped loose and must be pressed onto the axles prior to final assembly

Third Member - Currie housing and axle package requires a standard Ford 9-inch third member set up for 31-spline axles

Aftermarket Brakes - Currie crate rearends conform to the ABCS (Aftermarket Brake Configuration Standard). This allows brake kits that use this standard, to easily be changed or upgraded without having to modify 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 rearends 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

Aftermarket Coil-over Conversions - Aftermarket coil-over conversions are very popular modification for this vehicle. While we have not tested all the available kits on the market, we know some may require modification to fit the stronger designed Currie bracketry. For more information regarding what modifications that may be needed, or a list of brackets that we have tested, please contact techinal support.
