i was lookin through the paper today and there is a 9" for sale, so i got thinkin about it since i need to rebuild my rear end anyways. so, does anyone know of any swap kits for 9" rear ends into a fox body mustang, specifically a 89 lx?

 

you would have to do some fabbing to make that rear end bolt in. or you could just buy a built 9" from strange that would bolt right in for 2k.

 

$2k is, how should i say this, way out of my budget. lol. thanks anyways. anyone else know about anything?

 

The 9"readends are used by everyone to dirt track racing to old hots rods to drag racing. When they see them, they grab them. They are hard to find. You might find a car with one that is close to the same size and make it work. I think I read somewhere about someone do that.

 

whats wrong with an 8.8??

 

Hard to change gears

 

if someone gets rid of an 8.8 for a 9" because of gear change install, their a ****ing deuche

 

Not if you race and change gears all the time

 

who changes gears when they race

 

i think the 9"ers are also more durable. im pretty sure im just gonna keep the 8.8. it already has gears. it was just a topic i wanted to look into more, just incase.
