Thread: Ford 9" rear end/disc brakes donor car

Tweet

Try to find one out of an early Ford Bronco. They are just the right width. The website below is a good reference for 9-inch Ford widths.

Thanks. Great website. WOW. Still trying to find a donor type car for the dics brakes, Lincoln maybe?

Thanks StuCool. You responded before I did. Good input. Also the width of early Bronco - 58" at wheel mount flange?

Great contribution rumrumm, I've added it to the 9" article on the Crankshaft Coalition wiki on another forum....

Some Lincolns from the 70's had Ford 9" axles with disc brakes. I just got some off a 77 Continental Mark V to go on my 75 Bronco.

As mentioned before, Ford Explorers had disc brakes that would bolt onto the 9". I think the years are from 96 to 2001. In fact, the rearends of those Explorers were 8.8" axles which aren't too shabby.

If you want a Bronco axle, try www.classicbroncos.com. There are always folks with extras.
