ive been doing some reading and john said this

Well, one thing that can I forgot to mention on the 8.8 is the new flange you need for the 8.8 to work with the V6 driveshaft... it about a $25 part but needs to be installed properly... After a mishap... Diversified is now selling 8.8's with the proper flange already installed!!!

Here's an example: Mustang 8.8" Rear Axle<br>Assembly 2005-2008 3.73:1<br>Ratio w/ABS w/Trac-Loc<br>Pinion Flange For Mustang V6 - FR3-6010-05AF


so.. my question is.. if you replace the d/s do you need this stupid flange?

also... whats the hp/tq limit on 3.73s with the 7.5" if im looking at potentially over 400 in the far future will they hold or will i need new ones? thx
if you have a heavy enough foot you will blow the tlok up on 100% stock power (i blew my open diff up but there the same thing)

built 7.5 > stock 8.8, order a detroit true trac from drivetrainspecialists.com (or an eaton but they cost more) and a TA girdle with stud kit and panhard bar relocation kit

the only people who think 4.10s are to much are those that have never driven them in a moderm vehicle with an OD

8.8 rearsstuffed with LSDs and what ever gears you want,
factory set-up too boot.
You just need the V6 driveshaft pinion flange from Ford.

Sounds to me like the 7.5 is a waist of time and money if this is true and you need to go to a Pro Shop to get a better game plan on step 1, 2, 3 to get you there then to blow money on bad parts that will need to come off for stronger ones. 8.8 would be a better way to go but a Pro Shop can tell you what race gear would be better then the 8.8 its a stock part for a 300HP car

Sorry I live in Ohio but we have a Rod Shop here in podunk Marion. Your in the heart of NASCAR Country I think it would be easy to find a Rod Shop In SC. Just look for a shade tree with a engine hanging from a branch.
