It is amazing how many different options you have in disc brakes...name brand or not.

Even for the 9" rear there are two axle tube diameters made with different size flanges...for the 8.8" theres even more. If you go with a kit all that is taken care of for you...if you piece something together, all you need to do is get the right bracket and then figure out the offset for the flange. I know it sounds difficult or confusing, but it always seems that way until you get your hands in it.

Currie offers their rear ends with a choice of brake options...including discs. Interestingly enough an 11" x 2" rear drum will give you the same stopping power as a stock Ford rear disc setup as the front brakes do most of the braking anyways. Just something to think about.

Something else to think about...you can buy an assembly from the boneyard and cut the tubes down your self...if you have the confidence to do it Id say do it. The only thing is getting the axles cut down and Currie (or any other rear end specialist) can just do that part of the project for you. If you go that route at least you know what year and car it came from and buy your discs accordingly. But remember that you still have to go through that boneyard rear end and check the seals, bearings etc...to make sure they are in working order, and then replace those if needed and possibly change the ring and pinion to suite your needs.

Many ways to skin a cat here, and some more expensive than others.

BTW...what is this going in?
