  • Could this even be possible? This MAY be an option for a foxbody build when money may be tight, but junkyards are plentiful!? Some Fabricating required!

    I got an explorer disc 8.8 with the 31 splines in my Ranger. Been holding it down for over a year with 6500rpm clutch dumps on slicks

    I just grabbed an explorer diff, 4.10 gears, and the two long axles out of a yard. Junkyards are one of my favorite places to go as a car guy. I had the axles machined to a mustang sized 1.40 bearing to fit the 8.8 in my SVO. The 8.8 in my car was from a 88 turbocoupe. Gonna be installing soon.

    I'm surprised you don't just run a 9in rear end , many years back I worked with a Guy that made a rear end jig to shorten or weld brackets on the hot thing was shortened and brackets welded for Mustang 8.8 replacement .good luck you could do the same to the Explorer rear to stronger to.

    Good stuff always enjoy the budget minded builds! Im always more impressed to see what someone can do with so little money. It takes no talent to simply buy parts but when you can beat the competition and spend 1/4 of the money thats a BIG win!

    • @Neomustangs
      @Neomustangs  6 дней назад +2

      We definately have spent our fair share keeping up with the competition. I always like to return to my roots when doing budget stuff like this. Dads car and now the black car again are part of that. Soon Cousin Pauls Clapped out coupe will be nothing but budget and second hand parts..

    My 97 sn95 Gt i went Moser spool 31 spline with C-clip elminators..Had a lot of grinding that got done....I was at the track late and i thought to myself 1000.00 dollars is worth more than my life..I ran stock 28 axles and welded limited slip forever..They still look good..

    • @Neomustangs
      @Neomustangs  5 дней назад

      Ya we welded a few DIFFS in our time lol! Not the best thing to do. I may end up buying C-clips here becuase the axles will need cut to fit.

  • @jcnpresser

    I think one of the cheaper options that I saw at cj pony parts, I believe, was 31 spine side gears for your carrier, and then just buy 31 spline 10 factory, or comparable sales. I was thinking I priced the stuff couple years ago and it was under 300$

    • @Neomustangs
      @Neomustangs  5 дней назад +1

      Ya the axles are at least 300 if not more. Im just messing with this see if its possible with a little fabrication.

      Same here. Although I don't have quad shocks on. Do you? I need to re investigate that. Was a direct bolt in mod. Also gives you rear diasc just needed to do a 2 port to 3 port adapter on the master cylinder . Weld a bracket under the tunnel for the parking brake cables. And run a bias valve at the fire wall.
