In Reply to: 8.8" vs 9" rear in a Mav? posted by Steamboat on March 11, 2000 at 10:53:39:
: I have a '73 Maverick, an '80 Versailles(does not run), and a wrecked '88 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe. Does anyone know if the 8.8" rear out of the T-bird (has disc brakes and posi) will swap into a Maverick as easily as the Versaille 9"? I would go look and measure, but the Versailles and T-bird are about 100 miles away.
I knew that the 9" is basically a bolt-in operation and does not have to be narrowed - that is one reason I bought the Versailles. Front disc's is another reason. One more question - does anyone know if the T-bird 8.8" would need to be narrowed for a Mav?
