330CubeGt Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 Are the 4 bolt holes on the end of the housing the same pattern from the 8.8 to the 7.5 rears. I found a 8.8 drum brake rear at the junk yard for $100 and I wanted to swap on the 7.5 flanges for the disk brakes while im in the yard so I can take a complete disk break 8.8 rear out of there.But not 100% if the older drum brake 8.8s would be different?

Craig Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 I dont know if a 7.5 will work or not but if you bring you a sawzall, take a set of 9'' ends off and weld them mugs to you 8.8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
330CubeGt Posted August 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Just incase anyone was wondering, everything swaps right over. Im running a fox housing with v6 axle housing ends/disk breaks with S595 axles. Im 100% sure the 1979 to 98 housings are identical and all that changed from 94-98 was the housing ends and the disk brakes as well as a slightly longer set of axles Heads up and ass kickin!
