8.8 swap

I picked up a used 8.8 from a wrecker today out of an explorer with 4:40 gears and posi.

The pinion is indeed 2" to the passenger side. Three inches off the driver side moves the pinion center 1 1/2" toward the driver side so the offset built into the pig is 1/2".

Here's a calculation on what it would cost to use an open Dana 60 that I already have in a truck:

housing, open carrier, 4:10 - free
axles - $305
limited slip $470
rear disc kit $350
shipping cost ??

Already at $1125 without shipping...

Advantage 8.8!
Also less weight.
