Default 9 Inch Build-Up Help

Hi All--I need some help. Is there anybody out there currently building a 9-Inch Rear end for their machine? Im hoping that someone has a housing and a center section (that's still put together with the ring and pinion and diff in it), thats all out of the car. I dont need parts or pictures, I really only need measurements.

Its a long story why I need these, Im just trying to get axles so I can roll the car around, instead of staring at it on jack stands. Id would rather get the right axles now, that buy a mis-fitting pair only to get rid of them down the line.

Ive attatched a picture, and I only need the exact measurements of F, G and E. From those I should be able to determine, what measurements I need for axles. Either that or I need to borrow a center section for a measure up. HA[8D]

Any info would be greatly greatly apreciated! Thanks!

We need to know for what year. There are slight differences in the measurements depending on the year. Also, if you plan on going with a wider tire, you might consider that now.

Alrighty--Should have given that info, sorry. Its a 68 mustang and Im using a housing that has an E measurement(according to my attatched post pic) of 52 + 7/16 inches. Its a small bearing housing--Im planning on running a 3.89/1 Gear Set, with a Detroit Tru Trac locker. T

he rear housing is NOT stock from the car, but I believe that the 67-70 rear was 52" or extremely close to that. As far as Wider Wheels, Im waiting to have the axles made up, So I can install those with the disc brakes to measure for exact backspacing! Thanks !!!
