Default my rear end

Has anyone narrowed their rear end here locally in Colorado, to get the deep dish effect? And if so, how much was this?

mwelch,

Hopefully you are asking about your car and not your own rear end. I asked our Mile Hi Cobra Club for some ideas and only recieved ideas on your car rear end (Except for a few that think my rear end is too wide - mine, not the cars)

Here they are:

Mark Williams in Longmont. May be the best in USA. All alchhol and top fuel use his stuff

Denver Drivetrain.

When I needed my differential shortened and new axels I had an
outfit called Western Drivetrain at 1790 Jasper in Aurora, phone
303-364-8098 do it. The guy is a big time Ford guy and really knows his
stuff. As far as price it depends on what else you have done. I had it
shortened, Moser axles, tapered roller axel bearings, US Gear 4 spider
Traction Lock, my ring and pinion and my case and housing, adapted Ford
Racing disc brakes, and he did the complete set up. The price was around
$1100 total but that was a few years ago. Hope this helps.

I had my 8.8 narrowed 3” at Front Range Drive Train on South Federal. I paid 2,000.00 but I had the “C” clips removed and the bearing move to the outside and also had Weldwood brakes add and the axles replaced with 1 ¼ “ 28 spline.

Hope this helps.

Dick Thompson

I think I spent $2800.

Ford nine, 31 spline axels, big Torino bearings, four pinion trac-loc with 3.5 gears. Narrowed to 50 inches. Power Coated.

There are two on ebay now, I was looking for a friend who needs one for a 1964 falcon but these won't work. Might be right for your application........
