Both have about 57" track.

Can the Ford work considering Mopars drive line offset?

I got one from a friend to sell at a swap meet and it's a 370 posi with 4.5 bolt circle.

Thanks​

I got it from a running Falcon that my friend is tubbing and installing a 9".

$$$ was about 1/5 of a 8 3/4.

Some Chevy vans had the engine offset by 6" or so, and it was very visible simply by looking underneath the car. The small offset of mopar is really nothing

In addition, as stated above, the 8" is a really good rear AND it looks good too!

I think the 8.8 is a bolt-in on an A Body.

8.8?

Out of what?

Cause I can guarantee it is not a bolt in if it's from a Mustang.

Or are you confusing an 8.8" for an 8"?


They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.

I just got it home so I'll lay it up to an 8 3/4 and get and idea of what I have. I'll post a few pics when it's out of truck and all.
