If you don't want a torn up part, buy it new or rebuilt, plain and simple. Used parts are always a risk. For more, translate the following. It'll be the most research you've ever done.

He woldn't have to worry about what would fit they never changed a thing in the entire how ever many year run.
Christ, you make my head hurt. Do you have to repeatedly ask which side of the toilet paper you need to use when you wipe your ass?
Well, if you had read any of the other posts on this subject and done some reading you would realize that your 87 or 88 TBird has the 7.5 housing. Also, you would have read that the 87-88's 7.5 housing is wider than the early (83-85) 7.5 housing (which is the same as a Mustang), which is the same as the 8.8's. The axles do not interchange between the wide and narrow housings.
This is the last time this is going to be said ....... if you want to use a 8.8 housing AND keep the 4-lug then you need to use the axles and brake backing plates from an 83-85 Tbird/Cougar in the 8.8 housing to get the bearing surfaces to mate up and keep the track width.
hey don't knock chevettes, my folks had one for 13 years.. had 250,000 on it, the front end finially just fell off it, only thing ever wrong was a valve that went bad.
Geo !!!!!!
I've come to the conclusion that these tech forums are useless.
Only if you're an igornant ass who constantly pressures the community to answer questions several times without so much ashiznitting a search button.
I think each user should be able to vote on another user. So we can vote them off the board....... Haha Survivor parody.
That's what Moderators are for. Besides then you could get voted off for nonsense.
Don't get me wrong. I'd love nothing better than to give this person consolation prize, send him on his way, and never hear from him again, but the biggest thing with him is the same uneducated and poorly thought out questions over and over again.
Looking back at it. He DOES give some entertainment value. I LOVE it when everyone fires stuff off at him. :flame:
