pull-a-part salvage yard ford 9" I have a 2000 t/a m6 with the stock 10 bolt and want to upgrade to a ford 9". the yards around me have rear ends for sale for $50. does any one have a write up of what all needs to be done to mount it under my car? i would like to have traction control if possible and i have to have abs. the machining is no problem as i am going to a nascar college and have access to a full shop and have friends that own shops also. would a 12 bolt be a better idea or no?

This is most likely your best way to go. Buy the Moser housing and axle package which comes with the bearings and the torque arm bracket, lower control arm brackets, etc.

You can then use the center section from the $50.00 rear. Bob

TTT for what?
A rear with no torque arm mount WILL NOT WORK.
Now...if you get your crew of buddies with their garages and this 'nascar school' (whatever the hell that is) all in one room I am sure someone can cut the brackets off an f-body rear and properly position and weld them on a junkyard 9"
Then since the whole 9" case is steel they could carefully position and weld torque arm mounts to it.
Then you can cut the ends off, properly position and weld f body ends on, buy new axles compatable with ABS if it's a four channel, swap your brakes onto it.
Notice how many times I used properly?
Handing $50 over for a rear is nice and easy, bolting it properly to the car is a whole other story.
