Thoughts on 9inch opportunity
Thoughts on 9inch opportunity I called the local gm auto yard for any possible rear ends lying around, the guy tells me he can get any Ford 9 in I want, axles to the right length, and gears that I want for about 800 bucks. Now that sounds like a good deal, but there's also the installation hassle that I have really no Idea of what's all involved. The guy tell me I'll have to cut off the perches, get a shorter driveshaft, and get the lugnut pattern changed over. My car is basicly stock M6, I just broke an axle and the stock torsen rear end. I could either replace the axle and build up the 10 bolt, or spend the same amount of money and get a ford 9 in, that I'm not so sure on how to mount into my camaro. Any thought on what I should do, or info on 9 inch install?
Thanks for all the input guys. I found a 9 in for sale that was in a third gen, but I guess the third gens are 1.5-2.0 inches narrower on each side. When I measured there was no way it could work, so I just bought a new auburn diff and stud girdle for the stock 10 bolt. I have an M6, I hope this set up holds until I get out of college or I find a nice used 12 bolt for sale.
