Any ideas on the origin of this?

The bearing housings have J&J or just JJ embedded in the casting.

This came out of an old ford hot rod years ago and was stored.

I bought it for the diff housing which has no rust pitting ( unlike most in Midwest).

Doesn’t seem to be a true six link but that would be an easy fix.

Any idea on what these sell for?

“J&J hub carrier for'Vette kit is 356-T6 cast aluminum“


1972 article on c3 and jag kits. Sold for approximately $800 back then.

Never heard of J&J. They probably didn't last long. Kind of surprising because the custom uprights are more effort than most companies (making aftermarket parts) would do.

Yeah, can’t find much else other than the motor trend article.

I’ll maybe clean it up, the hit it with some rattle can paint on the half shafts and strut rods and advertise it for $450 or $500.

The diff is really nice, but dated 10/63. It won’t work, so probably sell it too. It has been sitting so long the seals must have dry rotted ( leak like sieves).

I need a 70-78 case. This one looked so nice I was going to buy it regardless of the year.

Last article I could find.

All getting cleaned up and put up for sale. One weird thing, the 63 diff is a non-posi unit.

positraction was an option until 19?? (someone smarter than me will have to answer)
