Yeah.... get us all excited....then... :\hate to say this... but ya know how girls always ask "Does my butt look big in these jeans?"....well Kaylin... not sure how to be polite and kind here... err i guess i can't be slapped over a modem connection, can i?? Kaylin... your rear end is too wide  68 Cougar is 2" wider than 62-65 Fairlane , this may play havoc with tire and wheel choices, you'll likely need to either use wheels with a big offset (like Front Wheel drives use) or shorten the housing a few inches. My choice would be shorten it 2" each side to fit Maverick axles, this gives lotsa room for getting tires past the brake drum when removing/installing.

....unless it has 31 spline axles....in which case i'd change rims, many wheels with offsets for late model Mustangs will work .IP: 216.129.74.20 |

I want to comment on your rear-end......Currie Enterprises seems to have a good thing when it comes to rear ends. I had some rear end work done and the local shop sent my axles off to Moser to change the bolt pattern. I think Moser is in Ohio, which is a lot closer to Nor'Carlina than Currie in California. Moser can do anything for 9" rear ends.------------------
