Ok...I know its a ford part...but I have had bad luck with the salvage yards around here...they want 500 plus for an 8.25 and dont even ask about an 8.75 price...but I can get the ranger 8.8 rear end for 75 bucks with either 3.08, 3.27 or 3.55 gears. I am not planning over 300 Horsepower as I want this to be driven often and get somewhat good fuel mileage...the measurement is 51.00" where as the 72 Dart is 51.400"...seems like a perfect fit to me...except for some perches etc..
Question is has anyone else done this?
