Since no one has responded I'll respond to ya. You need to do a search... The problem is you need to attach the torque arm, which means welding to the cast housing. This will work for some period of time, but will eventually crack. I don't know if anyone has one that hasn't cracked, but you can do a search on it, there are several posts on this.

well my friend has one in his mustang and he has broke it atleast 4 times now so i woudlnt consider them to be an alternative especially since his 99 gt wasnt making crazy power to break it . I oulw just look for a 9in or a dana 60 and get it over with. DLS can hook you up with a nice one for a good price!
