RE: 8.8" Rearend Swap
you have to change the whole rear end dude. how else would you put an 8.8" ring gear in a housing made for a 7.5"? and while your at it, get some aftermarket lower control arms.

the only company ive seen selling complete 8.8 rearends is strange engineering. and i think they run about 2 grand. your best bet is to go to the junkyard.

you might want to check out www.stangparts.com
this is a big Mustang salvage yard in Winder, GA, I'm sure they have complete rears for Stangs in that price range.
