Default 8.8 Rearend

Hey guys i just need to know something? Does any one know if an 8.8 out of a 93 fox will bolt up under a 00 new edge stang? I'm talking as far as the Drive shaft, and suspension?

Basically yes. from what I have read on other forums the fox axles are a little shorter end to end. something like 3/4 inch per side so your tires will be further into the wheel well. Also there may be 2 holes for the control arms that have to be drilled larger but generally thats it.

Yes it will work, and aside from what akula has said, you will have to make provisions for the disc brakes on the `00. I forget if the caliper brackets are welded on or pressed onto the end. But yes the d-shaft will bolt up, and the control arms/quads will line right up

you need to do a 5 lug swap, disc brake swap, and you will need wheel spacers
