The Ford 8.8 and 9 inch rear differentials are two of the most
popular and best performing differentials on the market. While the
8.8 inch is commonly used in late-model Mustangs, the 9 inch is
certainly the most popular and arguably the most dominant
high-performance differential for muscle cars, hot rods, custom
vehicles, race cars due to it being a semi floating drop out, with
3600 Gross Axle Weight Rating. Built from 1957-1986, the 9-inch
Ford differential is used in a huge range of high-performance
vehicles, both Ford and non-Ford, because of its rugged
construction, easy-to-setup design, and large aftermarket support.
The 9-inch effectively transmits power to the ground for many
classic Fords such as the Falcon and F-150, but is also the choice
of preference for many GM muscle car owners and racers. Both,
however, do need maintaining and rebuilding after extensive use,
and need a variety of different ratios for top performance and
special applications. This book provides detailed step-by-step
information for rebuilding the differentials with the best
equipment and installing the gear sets, converting to posi-traction
for a variety of applications. Aftermarket 9-ich differentials from
different manufacturers like Currie, Moser, Strange are reviewed,
and the reader learns how to rebuild and set-up these
high-performance aftermarket axles. Chapters include axle
identification, inspection, purchasing axles for rebuilding,
differential tear-down, ring and pinion gear removal, inspection,
reassembly, drive axle choices and more.
