    But also I was saying that your Big Red has to have a ring and pinion........ also known as the final drive........
    The manual is the best thing you can have, it will help alot!

    The '82 & '83 Reds are chain driven, therefore only sprockets, axles, bearings, etc in the rear. They aren't shaft driven with
    a ring and pinion.
