They have aluminum cases when thy went to torsion bars. ------------------ Tropical Kahuna with a 7 1/2' plow on his truck! All driveways $15 cash only!

TomP Gearhead Posts: 4764 From: Delta BC Canada Registered: Dec 99	posted 01-05-2001 03:27 AM Rangers use both 7.5 and 8.8's depending on engine and year, etc... they are quite narrow but have an offset pinion, won't work for an early Mustang if thats whatcha mean? but you can narrow one further by using 2 right side axles,or widen it by using 2 left axles and making the housing width match.

67stang Gearhead Posts: 1428 From: Lynn Haven FL Registered: Jun 99	posted 01-05-2001 09:37 AM Actually I am looking for an 8.8 for a non-Ford product. My Jeep. My mustang is still in North Dakota and the truck has bad main bearings and will be rebuilt later in the year, and I am selling the bronco (I think). To many cars and not enough time to enjoy them.
