Title: 8.8 rearend swap
Post by: Jmoore87 on October 07, 2011, 08:13:45 PM
So i have an 88 cougar v6 and would like to swap out my 7.5 rear for an 8.8. I plan on taking the rear off of a 94 sn95 stang, but im not sure as to what other brake upgrades ill need to make this swap a success. I do know that ill need an emergency brake cable from an 87-88 turbo coupe. Can anyone help me out??

I'm interested in the same thing, would like to dispose of the 7.5 in my Bird.
