Rear Ends Plzzz
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...

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.

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.
