Axles and Housing<\/p>\n
These bolt-in rear axle packages are designed to replace the original \u201968-\u201972 GM A-Body rearend housing and are compatible with the stock 4-link trailing arm rear suspension found in your Chevelle\/Malibu\/El Camino\/Sprint\/GTO\/LeMans\/Tempest\/F85\/Cutlass\/442\/Special\/Skylark\/Gran Sport. The major advantages gained by upgrading to a Ford 9\u2033 axle include a) greatly increased strength (reliability), b) the variability of the housing to accept almost any gear ratio from 2.47:1 to 6.14:1, c) a drop-out third member for ease of service, and d) steel axle retainers keep the axle\/wheel in place in the event of axle failure. Here are the features you\u2019ll find in our fabricated Ford 9 Inch axle kits:<\/p>\n

As featured on Classic Truck\u2019s Week to Wicked. Watch the transformation here!<\/p>\n
Assembled by Professionals<\/p>\n
Hand-assembled by trained experts in-house, our Ford 9-inch third members are built from quality components with an exact step-by-step process. We bring this combination of precision assembly and quality components to you at a price that can\u2019t be beat. We trust these third members so much, they\u2019re the go-to choice for our own rides, from the street to the track.<\/p>\n
Tough, Nodular Iron Center Section<\/p>\n
Our Ford 9 Inch Nodular Iron Third Member Center Section Carrier starts with a NEW casting with over 4 lbs. of additional material in critical areas. Nodular (ductile) iron is much more resistant to fracturing than OEM \u201cgray\u201d iron. Extra ribbing reinforces the case and rearmost pinion support (pilot bearing).<\/p>\n
Thick, forged steel bearing caps surround the carrier bearings, all securely held in place with precision Grade 8 cap screws. The improvements continue with rugged billet steel adjuster nuts and heavy-duty keepers to ensure your ring gear settings are maintained. All mounting surfaces are precision machined to ensure a consistent, flat surface for a positive gasket seal (no more leaks on your shop floor). An oil fill plug is included.<\/p>\n
Precision Assembled for Proper Ring Gear Teeth Pattern<\/p>\n
Getting a proper pattern on the ring gear teeth is crucial. Our time-proven, step-by-step process ensures the correct backlash, preload, and proper amount of pinion shims to ensure the correct pattern on the ring gear teeth. Our gears use use cold-rolled 8620 steel, known for its long-wear and durability.<\/p>\n
To ensure a proper gear pattern, we use a stronger \u201cDaytona\u201d style pinion bearing support to maintain that critical pinion depth setting. Stronger due to its larger bearings, our Daytona pinion support also uses the spacer-and-shim setup to maintain critical pinion depth settings under high load, unlike traditional crush sleeves which often compress further, take out your preload and lead to failure. With solid bearing spacers and the proper shims, we eliminate this problem and make setting preload easy and repeatable during installation, service and gear changes. Since preload is already set, simply torque the pinion nut to 160 ft.\/lbs. and you\u2019re good to go. The pinion gear is connected to our new, forged steel \u201cFord short\u201d, 1310-type pinion yoke.<\/p>\n
