Hey there.
I'm about to start a project, and I need a list of rear ends that will swap into the 1st gen rx-7.
Preferably LSD.
My buddy says to use the TII rear end.

This car will be one of a kind

 

I wish I could say to look at the grannysspeedshop 8.8" TA/SA kit but mine is literally taking forever to arrive (been over 2 months).

The TII has a rear subframe so TONS of custom work would need to be done to make it work and it is not really worth it...

 

GSL or -SE rear end.

 

the reason I ask, because.........I'm using a 4G63-T.
with a Bell housing to make it RWD.

 

Built Ford 8.8 with Auburn ECTED LSD/locker, Strange SS axles, and Aerospace brakes. I put down 430+ hp to 8.5" slicks at the track, cutting 1.51 second 60ft times... And I drive it home every time without a problem. Look no further.

 

Ooo, My boddy just said apparently Ford 8.8 are like $100 LOL

 

Snag one outta a Mustang, T-bird, Ranger truck, Explorer, Crown Vic, or whatever you can find at the scrap yard.

Used for light offroading in the trucks and drag racing in the Fox-Bodies, so you know it'll handle the torque. Plus tons of aftermarket for gears and differential locking mechanisms.

Simply weld up your spring and shock perches and call it a day.

Beautiful thing about rear axle swaps is that they're so easy.

 

i have a spare rear end for my rs turbo capri, its need to be rebuilt but no big deal. its from a 81 capri. any one know if its a ford 8.8. iam 90% sure it is. (capri's are the same thing as a fox body mustang just different panles)

if it is a 8.8 what would i have to change to make it fit and work in my car.
