its off a 4.2L v6 f-150 2001
is it an 8.8?
will it fit my 2001 auto

 

[GreenFaleen]

yes and yes

 

[BlackStang59]

perfect perfect

 

[Onemanzu]

no

you MIGHT have to relocate the tabs off of the 8.8 to line up with the mustang rear end, im not saying you will, but im not saying you wont...

and personally im not sure if it is an 8.8 but i believe it is

 

[GreenFaleen]

no

you MIGHT have to relocate the tabs off of the 8.8 to line up with the mustang rear end, im not saying you will, but im not saying you wont...

and personally im not sure if it is an 8.8 but i believe it is

it is an 8 and a f-150 should have the same tabs

 

[BlackStang59]

well i need i 100% answer because its my friends dad and he needs some quick money and its right off his truck

 

[Onemanzu]

it is an 8 and a f-150 should have the same tabs

why would it the trucks have leaf springs we have a springs... they should have the same tabs... but some might be different

 

[wadepetersen]

just get it and if you got th change the tabs all well

 

[BlackStang59]

ok then

 

[GreenFaleen]

im pretty sure the tabs are the same, if they are a bit off it wont be hard to relocate them at all

 

[BlackStang59]

so how can we measure the tabs?

 

[GreenFaleen]

mock up the rear end if it bolts up yay, if it is off cut off the tabs move them where they need to be and reweld

 

[itschristorres8]

i dont believe they're the same
i think it'll have a different mounts for shocks and what not
also might be longer

 

[BlackStang59]

so it wont work?

 

[rodthrower2.3T]

dont truck rear ends have the center section offset from center?
pretty sure they have 31 spline axles and of course 5x5.5 pattern i think

 

[rodthrower2.3T]

i dont think the leaf spring axles have the mounts for the uca and lcas

 

[BlackStang59]

so?

 

[GreenFaleen]

i might be thinking of a ranger, but Im pretty sure anything smaller than a f-250 will work

 

[BlackStang59]

anymore opinions before i try out this expierement?

 

[V6 Stalker]

i might be thinking of a ranger, but Im pretty sure anything smaller than a f-250 will work

Don't rangers run a 7.5"?
