After taking apart my original rear, I decided to stick with it, thus this one must go. It's over kill for me and the money would be better spent elsewhere.

Specs:

8" rear end
3.00:1 gears
Spool
Brand new brakes
Ready to fit in a thirdgen of course.

I'm on the northside of Chicago. Price is $500 It's ready to run as-is, but you may want taller gears (obviously) if you're racing.

 

Torque arm mount?

 

Nope no torque arm mount. You'll have to buy or fab one.

 

If ya don't mind me asking... if this thing doesn't have a torque arm mount, how exactly do you figure it's "ready" for a third-gen? The torque arm mount is the biggest difference between our axles and all the rest of the stuff out there... and the biggest fabrication obstacle to figure out. ??

 

Fabrication is sometimes required. I had a a good idea of how I was going to make one, but ended up spending my time fabing subframe connectors and fixing my current rear end. $500 for an almost complete Ford rear is a pretty damn good deal! And if you guys are anything like myself, a little fabrication, DIY and ingunity goes a long way.

 

Uhhhh, yeah. I guess I'm a weakling then, because 'no torque arm mount' means "nowhere near ready for a thirdgen" to me...

On the PLUS side, the 3.00:1 gearset would be EXCELLENT for the top-end plans I have on the Bonneville salt...

 

Well for guys like me that don't have the cash to drop on a currie or moser, this is a solid deal. Not to mention you're only running a 3.27:1 so stop ripping on my 3.00:1.................
