Riiiight, about that, 8’s on a stock motor is TERRIBLE :confused :lol
very bad… well your 5.0 was junk, once you got to it.
I would LOVE to drop a 9" in my SS and launch that thing at 5k all day long…but its expensive as shit lol
Just do a 8.8 lol
how much could I pick up a used one for?
seriously…I like worry shitless about breaking my rear end. You all can make fun of me, but shit happens and I dont want that to happen lol
gotta pay to play. break what youve got then worry about it ive always said.
I dont think its too bad seeing how it was at redline damn near every minute of its life while i was in hs lol. Had around 175 passes on it just at the track alone, every weds 4-5 runs, “street” beatings, burnouts etc lol. I cant believe it didnt blow up earlier!
i broke the rear end in one of my old trucks. between off roading and powerbrakes and donuts, it couldnt take much more, one day i side stepped the clutch and it went POP bzzzzzzzzz done.
atleast you were close and not at LVD with it
exactly what I DONT want too happen…
its obvious the kid before me, beat the shit out of my car…my rear end, is the weakest link. Dont know how much of a beating I can give it before it brakes which is why im holding back from buying better tires.
$150-500 depending on if its stock, has gears, aftermarket axles etc. Youll have to look at the mounting points for your car. Also keep in mind the fox 8.8 is 3/4" narrower than the 94-04 rears, which will help with offset etc.
I have 315’s on the rear of mine and they are a 1/4" away from my frame fender walls…cant go any narrower without smaller tires, and even my rims are 10.5" wide.
I did crack the w/p at lvd once, drove all the way to lvd, tech said wtf is leaking. I was like WHAT!! Look under the car and the w/p had cracked. Long drive home getting to 80 then shutting the car off to keep it cool lmao.
i dont see an 8.8 going in an fbody
So you’ll need the 94-04 rear. Just see what kinda mods you’ll hafta to do to get the uca & lca’s to work.
Yall got a lil ford in ya somewhere :lol
yeah, hopefully in the stereo, or somewhere that doesnt involve going fast
shoulda went to NAPA and did a parking lot repair
