: No 4 cyl Mustang II's had 8 inch rearends, only V6 and V8 cars did. -CP : : : : : : : : i havent done the research yet, but i assume my auto-powered, V8 maverick, came equipped with the 2:79 gear. : : : : : i would like to upgrade that gear into the 3:25-3:50 range. : : : : : were the manual transmissioned mavericks geared differently? : : : : : im looking for the quickest, cheapest, and easiest to find way of upgrading. : : : : : also, i was told that many mustang II's and capri's came with a posi-trak that will fit nicely into a maverick's 8 inch housing. : : : : : anyone care to shed some light on this subject? : : : : : what cars in particular should i be looking for? : : : : : thanks : : : : : RR : : : : :::I have a 3.55 center section out of a MustangII. It is an open rear, the trac-loks are hard to find. The 3.55 open has a G code on the door tag. I can't remember the trac-lok.The 3.55 is more common in a V6 II with an auto.In my opinion the 3.55 is the best alround ratio, of course tire highth plays a part in there also.To answer your question,2.79 and 3.00s were in both auto and standard shift Mavs. Bill : : ------------------------ : : a couple of other questions about using the mustang II center section.. : : do all mustang II's share the same 8 inch housing as the maverick? : : and : : will my existing axles (spline count) work with the "II" center section? : : thanks : : RR
