Rear End

scubasteve041186 · September 25th, 2006, 02:46 AM

hey i was kinda curious how hard it is to change a rear end and what i would be affecting by doing it cause well why would i get 7.5" gears when i switch up to a 8.8" anyways so i thoguht i might as well get the rear end done first and with that will the v8 rrear ends come with a t-loc or am i off lookin for one?

8.8" rear comes with t lok and if it is from the same year mustang, will bolt right up. they come factory with 3.27s in the gt, and they come with 3.55s in the mach 1.

haha so now the hunt begins at the junk yard

so how hard is it to take it off and change it over?

itschristorres8 · September 25th, 2006, 01:39 PM

Why not buy a brand new one? if you get one from a junkyard you have to make sure nothing is wrong with it and you might need bearings with it. where if you get a new one which is about $189 you wont need bearings

AtlanticBlue99 · September 25th, 2006, 04:21 PM

ebay- Drivetrain Specialists. like 160-170 for it. frpp t lok. they also sell auburn and eaton locking units. eaton is cheaper than auburn

itschristorres8 · September 25th, 2006, 04:28 PM

AtlanticBlue99 · September 25th, 2006, 04:29 PM
