Anyone know a source for stock 4 lug axles for an 88 tc? It is a 5 speed and I dont care about the anti lock exciter rings - ill be abandoning that. Im just looking for something that will work & keep my factory rims without spending big bucks.

Thanks for the help.

Randy's Ring and Pinion has the 30" axles you need. Also YUKON GEAR stocks them. To bad you did not post sooner i just junked 6 sets of perfect ones in the metal dumpster.They were collecting dust in the basp00get of the shop. I would have sent a pair to you. sorry.

One more question. Do you know how many splines these have?

They use the same axles as the 83-85 Tbirds/Cougars.

28 spline.

I have a couple sets of them. How about $20 each plus shipping?

Thanks guys. Now i know what to look for without taking it apart again. I didn't think to count the splines when I replaced the bearings. It is probably time to rebuild the whole thing. 167k on the clock.

We can talk 50RACER. Are they in good shape? Any grooves where the bearing meets the axle? I'm about to call it a nite but I'll check in tomorrow.

Thanks!
