Sounds like you got your work cut out for ya on this one nick. Good luck to ya. Just one question though. Why do you want to put an 8.8 in the front? I know that it's strong for a lighter vehicle but a turd is still a turd no matter how you look at it. That's what they call my bronc at the shop lol.
The ford 8.8 Rear is stronger than the Dana 44 rear even though it has c clips
Im putting the 8.8 in the rear and I eventually wanna do a super 8.8 kit which gets rid of the c-clips
anyone looking for a chrysler 8.25?????
not unless it has 4.56 gears
The 8.8 is a strong axle. It also has plenty of after market. I've used my 28 spline hard more than once with no failures.
Nah it doesn't
the 8.8 is similar in beef to a 44 and is a great easy swap + u get discs - i think u need 1 inxh spacers to match stock width
nah aint worried about it cause I heard when I do the super 8.8 kit to it, it will fix that
