Building my Ford 9 Inch for BIG POWER!

[@lilpoindexter]

I ordered a 9inch from quick performance too...i got the housing, brakes, and axles, patiently waiting for the punkin

[@DadbrosGarage]

Love to get a Ford 9" for my c/10 :) Thanks for the video bud

[@musclebone7875]

I love my 10 bolt 8.2

[@6.8SuperDutyDriver]

Good show!

Ok so I’m scrapping my g body rear end for one of these. Most GM have the c clip that hold the axle in place. Excuse my ignorance, but the part you had trouble with, that’s what holds the axle in place? Much like a c-clip eliminator would?

[@averagedadsgarage]

Yes. These axles have a bearing pressed on that grab the axle. The end plates hold those bearings in the rear end. So if you break an axle inside the rear end, you don’t lose a wheel. Just make sure you get a big bearing 9 inch (Torino bearing).

[@evilokc]

what hardware did you use to on the brake dist cover/retaining plate? they sent me the same bolts they sent you and they dont fit. the nuts hit the housing from the back and the bolts have a shoulder that hits.

[@mmb1487]

wow nice work figuring it out that kit has alot of mistakes the average person is not going to be able to figure out and it will waste alot of peoples time they need to sale kits that work together bottom line your work looks great

[@Macnificent78_]

Are u using will.wood bracket

[@b.c6015]

I didn't use a jig to put a rear gusset on my 9 inch i tack left to right a couple of times then Lay weld

[@b.c6015]

Is the dana 60 stronger?

[@paulthompson1654]

Unless u buy top of the line alloy housing many thousands they for majority of the lesser aluminium housings they flex and cause gear noise

[@jasondelo4354]

He’s sacrificing strength for 15lbs. From what I’ve read the modular iron casing is stronger. But hey it’s his money.

[@brividoofficialsite74]

I just put mine together and also got the explorer disc brake kit....does your brake pad cover enough rotor surface? Mine looks like it doesn't much, but I'm not to familiar with it.

[@averagedadsgarage]

Sorry for the late response. I actually had to go out and look at it. So ya, the pads seem to only cover about 75% of the rotor. Not sure if all the explorer brakes are like that, or just this particular kit.

[@brividoofficialsite74]

@@averagedadsgarage thank you for the response sir

[@matthewwasley339]

You plan on street driving with a spool?😅 best of luck to you in the turns gonna have to slip a tire to keep the chafing down.

[@averagedadsgarage]

Oh I’m looking forward to it. Lol. It’s a race car first, so I’m definitely giving up some driving comforts. I’m hoping because this truck is going to be lighter than most, it won’t tear up tires too bad on the street.

[@heshtesh]

@@averagedadsgarage ; Love your response, i'm 64 and building my retirement street toy and every step has been geared towards a mechanical symphony rolling down the road, I'm running a pump gas n/a 641 hp. 17* 1st. gen 399 ci. stroker with solid roller and carburation. the rest of the symphony consist of th 400/3600 stall with straight cut gear set, ATI manual/auto valve body, all mods made to install trans brake, manual steering and brakes and finishing with a QP 9" with rear brake shoes, 35 spline axles, 3.50 with spool. I also have a Yukon locker on the shelf, never tried a spool before so I want to at least give it a try. Beautiful build on your part.

Was considering doing the 9” ends on my 8.8. Think I made a mistake

[@paulhead]

Super 88 kit puts the set 20s/c clip eliminator on the ends

[@Macnificent78_]

Man im going th the same shit my willwood i bought my not fit my9 inch im so upset

[@leonardlunsford8924]

should have got a Versailles rear end instead

[@billboeck4644]

sell it before it`s to late Q/P rear ends can`t take that kind of power , I know longer will put there crap in my customer`s cars to many harmonic problems.

[@goldie_box]
