1968 Gears
I am posting this question again, not sure if I am in the right area? I have a 289, and I plan to swap it for a 302, with a 5spd. AOD tranny. Wanted to know if I need to swap the rear end for a 9" or can I just change the gears of the original axle? Any info would help...THANKS!

RE: 1968 Gears
Wrong section,but you could just change the gears instead of going over kill with a 9'.I'm guessing you have the 7.5 rear end?
If so check Ford racing,they have a Traction-Lok limited slip unit for $220 for the 7.5 that with gears would be less hassle I believe.
Ford racing -(3.73)$189 (4.10) $184
