do u still have the headlights and corners?

ok I now have a 8.8" rearend from a 98ish explorer with disc brakes, i still need a passenger side axle shaft though....

a 28 spline axle?

email sent. I need a 28 spline 27 5/8" axle shaft for a 8.8" I think the only 8.8" that are 28 spline are the ones with drum brakes.

ok sorry i think i found the answer to what i needed to know through the search! lol sorry I have a 2001 Sport Trac w/drum brakes so i believe it is gonna be a 28 spline rear and the axle in the 99 expo is gonna be a 31 spline so that isn't gonna work i guess... anybody have a spare passenger...

I need a passenger side axle shaft for a 8.8 from a sport trac or possibly a explorer if they measure the same?

I have a 01 Sport trac and i am needing a passenger side axle shaft for it, do any of you know if a axle shaft from a 99' 4x4 explorer would be the same? both axles are 8.8's... the chunk is offset 3" on my sport trac and i don't know if it is on a 99' explorer.

I am sure that narrowing it and raising it did make a much bigger difference than just raising it, but anytime you move pivot points it changes the suspension, like i already stated it would raise the angle on the upper control arm, which changes the instant center of the front suspension and...

I narrowed it to try to compensate for the camber curve, I just cut the front of the control arm with the ball joint off and cut 1 3/4" off the length of the control arm then replated and gussetted it with 1/4" plate and again it was a failure... I can say that if you raise the lower balljoint...

lol yeah i seen the same thing and tried it, only i narrowed mine 2" also. not sure if me raising and narrowing the arms was what was wrong but i can personally say mine rode like CRAP!!!! It felt like it had a see saw affect like the truck wanted to roll over on itself, albeit it didn't have a...
