1983 Bronco should have a Ford 9" rear
-no idea on the t-case
71-73 Mustang 61.25 inches WMS - WMS
Toyota rear: who cares? :flipoff2:
hey cheif....i think 81 or 82 was the last year of the 9"
are you considering putting a ford rear under the mazda?
I checked the Powertrax website and it had both listed from 1983 to 1986.

Ford 9 was used until 86, 8.8 was from 83 to 86 - in fullsize Broncos
you get whatever they had sitting in the pile that day.
my 85 has a 8.8.
I know someone who wants less than $500 for an 83 Bronco with an NP435. The body has some bad rust on the lower parts of it.
He also has a Mustang with a 9", but he wants $400 for the axle alone....
after 1980 the 9" was only used in 4wds
BUMP!
what vehicle used rectangle headlights and has a good, solid attachment/adjustment mechanism for them that could be retrofitted to uglytruck without too much trouble? I'm talking less springs and tabs, more screws
What the flashlight didn't work so well?!? :D
yj?
i know that you dont want to use a cherokee one this could happen if you didQuote:

YJ may be a good option. Hell, the cherokee may even be a good option. Yota ones just use the a crappy attachment system with a spring and these two crappy screws that go through a couple tabs that bend. I just need something I can weld into the existing sockets that will result in a solid adjustment and attachment system.
would cheapy off road lights or traqctor type lights not be a good option?
want DOT approved
Gotya, that was the only thing I could figure. Going to keep ugly truck street legal eh?
80's wagoneer have a steel bucket held on by 3 screws and still has a square headlight that can be adjusted
what about snow plow lights, i bet you could get a good cheap set in a few months
sweet I'll check these out. Need to do a clunker run anyway, see if I can track down a front driveshaft with real splines :DQuote:
