Yes direct bolt in no problems

but remember this it most likely will need a posi rebuild kit as IMO the clutch will be worn..so remember this when pricing it

u'll only need a 8.8 if u plan on going big for horse power.....people at the strip where i live run mid 11's all day long with a 7.5 rear

right, as early mustang had the 7.5 rear..thier not going to take slicks at a track or large drag radials..but will work nice on a avg hp car

How easy is it to find aftermarket gears for the rear end of a 7.5"rear end?
