Mine - Affiliated.

It has 2.72 : 1 prairie gears AND the ever popular drum brakes. Using it for another application? Backing plate to backing plate is 53 inches.

Sorry, that's what it is. 4:10s and discs are considerably more expensive.

Located near Albany, NY

What kind of rear? 9 inch, 8 inch, 7.5, or 8.8? All came in Mustangs covering a 50 year span.

Removeable center section? That narrows it down. Any tags on it with numbers? Otherwise year and bolt pattern. Smoking deal if 8 or 9". Just sold an 8" with 3.79 gears for a lot more than that.

Still I must be the only one who wants gears like that for a highway cruiser.

Or do a disk brake swap and use for a bike engines car. <3.0 pinion is great for bike engines in locosts. If it's one of the smaller sizes weight won't be bad either.

The time wasted with C-List tire kickers, phone tag and naer-do-wells wandering around my garage is not worth the measly $65.

Free Mustang rear end to a Challenger.

It's not the desirable gearing, but it make your car burn out in a straight line.

Merry Christmas,
