Ford 9 Inch Swap In '95 Z28 Questions Hey, I couldn't really find what I was looking for from the search... I'll be putting a ford 9 in my 95 camaro and am wondering what others have done to do this. I'm looking to get just a used rear-end locally, put 4.56 ring and pinion in, as well as a 31 spline spool. My dad said we'll have some shaving to do, and the axles will need to be cut to fit the car. I'm assuming I need to send those out; who does this? We've got some welding and fab skills, so not too afraid to fab stuff up (will be making torque arm and mounts). If any other racers have suggestions, feel free to chime in. Thanks!

I won't need the stock brakes, and making those mounts won't be too difficult because I can do MIG and TIG welding. Remember, this is a drag strip-only car. We can probably borrow a friends jig for the axles. As for the driveshaft, we'll probably have to get one made to fit and be strong enough.
