Will this work on my 97 4.6 Sport ?

Thanks

they are solid axles no? they dont use half-shafts like we do. if you could modify where the halfshafts would have to go in then maybe?

Mike,

I found this one on ebay for under 70 dollars shipped on ebay .

Too bad .

junkyard?.....honestly get a trac-lok pumpkin from the yard and get some gears/install kit/rebuild kit for it and turn some heads

you COULD use a cobra 28 spline unit seeing how they have independent rear suspension like we do.

That's what I picked up. 99' cobra complete centersection with 4.10's trac-lock...fun stuff.

How much and did you do the work yourself ?

just get the side gears machined. 392bird has the depth specs.

Well I just won this almost complete 99 cobra IRS for 400.00

Is this what I needed and what else can I use on my Bird ?

 

[The Great Obucina]

just the center section is readily able to be swapped over. alot of that other stuff isnt much of a benefit to you.

Cool , I think I came up on this buy . The seller wants this picked up so he will
take 50.00 off for not shipping .

I live about 30-60 minutes from this seller .

Now I need a drive shaft !!!


I don't know how easily I can find a 93 Mark VIII drive shaft at the yards .

Should I get one from another year ? I'm thinking I could get away with it.

 

[Porkchop]

just take the time to find a 93....you will find one, someday lol.

I looked on car-part.com and found a few but Im not sure if its the right one .

They called it rear shaft they also had some that were front shaft ?

 

[Porkchop]

huh? wierd....

 

[Toombs]

Those are for the four wheel drive option available in 93 on the Marks.

thats the guy i got my 1995 v8 timing cover from for about 50 bucks. he is about 13 miles from me and i have been there twice already. he is selling a 93 shaft for 100 bucks, which is how much they go for here on tccoa anyways. If you want i will go take a look at it and make sure its a one-piece for the price of gas. if it is i will buy it for you and you can pay me when you pick it up. I have no plans for today lol
