i leave the pages up on my box, and browse when im waiting for other things to complete... but i am also an active member of about 6 other boards, which helps.

thanks alot man. i am actually going to be putting in an 8.8" rear and 4.10s next fall for a school project. this stuff is quite helpful

99mustang232 · December 7th, 2005, 04:06 PM

i hear that... im planning on the same 8.8+4.10+4r70w=

was tossing around the idea of buying a complete setup, or getting a take-off rebuilt and maybe some shortend+welded axle tubes?

AtlanticBlue99 · December 7th, 2005, 04:20 PM

i was going to hit up a junkyard and see if i can pull out a complete rear end and just put in 4.10s and new rotors/pads... i might see if i can find an affordable kit out there. if you find anything descent, let me know man.

i thought our cars already came with 8.8's?how can I tell which one I have?

DC97Cobra · December 15th, 2005, 10:33 AM

nevermind. I just answered my question.

AtlanticBlue99 · December 15th, 2005, 10:39 AM

yea the v6 comes with the 7.5" and the gt got the 8.8" in the midst of the fox years

99mustang232 · December 15th, 2005, 11:31 AM

also some of the 6er owners were lucky and got upgraded by ford from 7.5 to 8.8 after complaining of noise from the rear, but this was on the 95-98 6ers

AtlanticBlue99 · December 15th, 2005, 12:31 PM

i wish i had a warranty and could pull that off lol

RunnyGrumpus · April 24th, 2012, 12:37 PM

I am actually looking in to doing this same thing. I am new to this forum and do not know how to start a new thread lol

So any help with that would be super awesome.
