i am looking at getting a ford 9 in ch for my formula, does any one here have a 9 inch? where would i be able to find one that has all the factory brakets that bolt in to third gens?

 

Currie, Moser, and any number of other companies make a 9" housing with factory brackets for Camaro's and Firebird's.

 

You can support one of the TGO vendors such as www.spohn.org who will also carry one of the aftermarket bolt in diffs.

 

Are you looking for a housing and axle package or a complete rear end? You can get the housing and axle package and use a junk yard center, or get a complete rear end. The center chunk is the most expensive part.

 

Mine is all Currie stuff minus the center section which I got local. Everything bolted up good, just a little grinding on their torque arm bracket to fix a spot where it was hitting the center section. Not sure if they've changed it by now.

 

The above picture should include the axles as part of the diff package. Order it with 31 spline axles then find a junkyard center section with a 31 spline posi and hopefully a gear ratio that you can live with and pop it in.

 

k,..... so i am gettin a ford 9 inch from a frnd for free. I am wanting to go with gears like 3:73's or 4:10 now i DO NOT no much bout rears, so what should i go with?? i got a rearend with all the brackets i can cut off and weld to the 9inch but other then that i am unsure i am going with a ls1/t56 running bout 400-450 horses. something to handle the abuse

 

did you end up finishing the ford 9?
