Ford 8.8 Junkyard Score

Appreciate the advice. It was that 8.8 sticky thread that got the thinking about the swap, but I definitely don't have the welding skills to do the job myself. I'm trusting this one to the local rear end shop. They can do it faster and better than I ever could.


It's good to know ones limitations. My brother says, and I agree, a tradesman, will do the job better on their worst day than I will on my best day, in that trade. If they will do it for $150, knock it out and get it done. You can save some cash by going back to the bone yard and finding another axle tho and taking the short side one. No need to buy a new one.
