Which Rear End? Reply #1 – May 16, 2008, 09:08:14 AM Well again this is a question that only you can say yes or no too.You need to know your plans that you have for a finshed car.5 lug is better but both rearends are 8.8s and both can be built up with better axles, posi, spool, gears and so on.3.27 will be a good gear for tooling around but if you plan to drag the car alot 3.73 3.90 or 4.10 would be better.But i vote for the 5 lug :) Quote Selected
Which Rear End? Reply #2 – May 16, 2008, 09:45:38 AM Well i've got a good idea of what i want to do and parts will be improved as plans move ahead. But as a one-shot, grab n' go complete setup pull from either a mustang parts car or mark vII parts car, which would you go for as a starting point? Quote Selected
Which Rear End? Reply #3 – May 16, 2008, 10:46:02 PM imo grab the setup off the mustang if its a 94-98.get on a mustang website get some gears like some 3.90s or 4.10s just my 2 cent though. Quote Selected
