Re: Rearend help

A ford Explorer 8.8 is going to be ~58-60" WMS to WMS, usually comes with 3.73 or 4.10 gears, has positraction out of the wrecking yard, will handle 500 HP easily and is a lot cheaper than going with a 9". That isn't to say that if a guy goes 9" he's doing it wrong, just saying, you can get a lot for your money with a ford 8.8"
