Gear Cases - Select from a range of gear cases in nodular iron or aluminum to match the performance and weight requirements of your build |
| |
|
|
 |

Gear Ratio - Select from a wide variety of ratios, Currie uses only the highest quality Motive Gear Performance® series (Orange box) ring and pinion sets in our 9-inch crate rear-ends |
| |
|
|
 |
|
Differential - Select the differential type that meets your traction needs, including helical gear or clutch-style limited-slip, automatic locking differential, or steel spool |

|
|
 |
|
REM® Isotropic Polishing - Removes surface imperfections created during the gear manufacturing process. Polishing eliminates the need for a break-in period, decreases friction, reduces operating temps, and removes stress risers. This option helps gears last longer and run quieter |
| |
|
|
 |
|
Powder Coat - Optional powder coat finish adds long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion to keep your rear-end looking its best |
NOTES:
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 prematurely wear gears and bearings and void the Currie Warranty
1967 Chevelle - 64-66 Chevelles had a flat spring pad on the housing, 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
Aftermarket Brakes - Currie crate rear ends 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
Aftermarket Coil-over Conversions - Aftermarket coil-over conversions are a popular modification for this vehicle. While we have yet to test 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 changes may be necessary and for a list of coil-over brackets we have tested, please contact technical support.
