What are the 2 (potentially serious) flaws with the stock type rear end?
1. If you break an axle you can loose a wheel.
2. When cornering hard, the square bearings allow the axle to move side to side. When using rear discs with a fixed caliper this pushes the pads away from the rotor. You end up having to pump the pedal to push the pads back to the rotor before they perform as normal.
Well, stick a fork in those issues because they are now FIXED! What we've created is the first direct bolt in Full Floating 9" System for your Mustang of classic Ford.
Picture a giant front spindle snout, thats what we have on the rear. Onto the fully CNC machined snout rides a hub with giant tapered roller bearings. This eliminates piston knock back when cornering hard.
The hub is secured just like a front hub with a spindle nut.
Our drive plate then bolts to the hub. You can clearly see the splines the outer end of the axle meshes with. Here is the second major benefit of this system over stock, the axle just drives the wheels, the weight of the car is carried by the hub. If you break an axle you no longer loose a wheel. In fact, to change an axle you don't even need to take off the wheel. Simply remove the wheel dust cap, the dust cap on the drive plate, pull out the straight axle and install the new one!
Here you can see the rotor attached to the rotor adapter which is bolted to the hub. You can also see the dust cap on the end of the drive plate.
Here you can see the backside of the pumpkin with fill, level and drain bungs
-6AN vent bung with almost robotic quality welds.
The system comes complete with spring perches and brake brackets welded to the housing, forged 4140 heated treated hubs, giant Timken tapered roller bearings, seals, rotor adapters, 11.75" rotors (fits 15" or larger wheels), 4 piston aluminum calipers powdercoated red or black, pads, drive plates, dust caps, fully polished heat treated 31 spline axles. The housing will even come powder coated. Price will be $2499. Not bad for a brand new 9" rear end housing with rear disc brakes and axles!
The housing will accept any 9" center section but we will also be offereing a fully built True Trac inside a Strange Engineering case with any gear of your choice.
