9" for $50
9" for $50 I just picked up a 9" out of an 80s FORD, got it from a guy i work with for $50...i was going to modify it to put into my ws6? anyone have any tips or help me with where i should start? or did i waste my money! thanks in advance
well i found this place online called quick performance...anyone ever heard of them? they sell the 9" housing for just under $1k and it comes with everything but the center section... what you guys think of this place? seems legit? bc then all i would have to do is put the center section from the 9" i already have in the housing i would buy from quick performance?

F-body 10 Bolts are like Forrest Gumps Chocolate...you never know what your going to get! I would say normally anytime you go over 425+ HP your living on borrowed time, however I have seen people in excess of 600+ still running on their 10 bolt.
If you do want to use this 9" of your's, my brother went this route and had the axles cut to proper length and then placed his 10 Bolt on a table...tack welded the Diff by the brackets onto the table..then he cut off the brackets..removed the 10 Bolt, placed the 9" onto the brackets on the table and then rewelded the 9" to the brackets.
Hope this helps.

I would spend the ~$1000 on the 9" that is made to fit. That's a good fair price. I don't think it would be worth it to modify an old 9" to fit you f-body, even if you got it for free.
I don't know about lots of money but I'm sure it could be done for alot less if you are on a budget. There are people out there that can fab the housing and get you set up with axles. Will it cost less than an axle/housing package....more than likely. But how much less is something I do not know. I assumed you were on a tight budget and with a little knowledge and research, you can get it done for less. It makes sense to buy a housing/axle package for $1050 if you have the extra dough laying around. It takes the legwork and research out of it in the case of being on a budget and you get everything you need except for a 3rd member.
This might be a stupid question but how does the brakes work?
I built a 9" for my buddies mud truck, so I'm familiar with the plates that the axles and in his case the drum backing plates bolted to. Are the factory 10 bolt brake brackets the same bolt spacing? Thus allowing the use of factory parts? If so how does the E-brake work? Same thing, factory disc plate will bolt to the 9" housing?

to the OP, pull the center section, find out the splines of the carrier and order the axle houseing package for $1000, you'll be so freaking happy you did in the long run.
I have a 9" in my A4 2000 SS, it's piece of mind that I'll never blow it apart. Your $50 spend on the 9" just saved you about $1000 on the carrier set up as long you can live with the gears that are installed in it.
+2 on Bob, great and fast service.
