What ford truck can i get a 9" rear end out of that may come with 373 or 411 gears. Also, is there any 9 inch ford rear end that will just bolt in? If so what years and models please. Thanks!
late 60's threw early 70's trucks why don't you just get my housing and use your axles ?? sell you one cheap !!
Those gear ratios ? Almost none, most had 3.50's The best bet to find a posi (traction-loc) unit in a 9" rear is look for one from a Bronco or 4wd pickup. As for bolt in 9's, your only choice is a late 70's Granada, Monarch (it was an optional upgrade in these two) or Lincoln Versailles (all had a 9, but with 2.50 or 2.75 ratios, some had trac-loc) Next best bet is a 57-59 Ford, these came with 3.70's but no trac-loc.
57 Ranchero and 57 wagon had 9" rears that bolt right in. Shoulda said something before the Gathering. Got 2 sitting right here. They came to Az. from Crownsville, Md. via Owensboro.
Years ago one of the stock car teams that I worked with, located a 9 inch center section with 411 gears and a traction lock unit in a scrap yard. They pulled it out of a 68 or 69 Ford van that had a 6 cylinder engine. They needed the 411 gears and I took the traction lock unit :bananaman
