: : I know what I have now 2:79 open rear end. My question is this. Is there a code on the 8" housings that identifies a traction lok ( I think that's what Fords are called ) ? If not, then how do I identify a donor to swap in place of my center section ?
: :
: : Dan, no Mav/Comets had locking rears from the factory that I know of.
: I assume you are talking about 8". If so Mustang,larger ford/mercury cars some vans, monarchs etc. had them as options.
: A place that may be of help is the Perogie web site to see what is offered. There gear selection include 3,3.25,3.40 and 3.55 in the middle of there offerings.
: I bought my unit from a local mustang owner,put new discs in, adjusted the unit and has been good for the last 3 years.
: Some other guys on the board can fill in more info and specifics.
: Best to you.
