rear disk brakes and rear end

extropy · August 8th, 2008, 05:03 PM

I just noticed a slow leak coming from the differential on my 69.

As I was planning to replace the rear drums with disk anyway, a friend had suggested that I transplant the entire rear end from a Cougar that came with disks already on it. As I don't know a thing about Cougars, I don't know how realistic of a suggestion this would be. Any thoughts? Better ideas? Would it be better/cheaper to rebuild what I have and get a disk swap kit instead?

i think they had a small lincoln that would work with a few mods.

you can use any Lincoln LSC or Tunderbird, Cougar or Mustang

You just have to do some work on it.

Here is my 2003 Cobra IFS Rear end we installed
