Question about ford 8.8 diff

Will this diff bolt straight up to an fd? What axles are reccomended? Does it require a different sized driveshaft? Ect just making sure of everything before I purchase. Thank you in advance

No. Depends on power and usage. Yes.

You need to be more specific. I do not believe anybody makes an 8.8 kit for the FD. I run an 8.8 in my FC, but I believe you can swap a s4 TII diff in an FD. I'd look into that unless you're making crazy power.

Are there any similar swap ideas for a different rear end into an FB such as the 8.8 or 9"?
