Hi again gents.. thanks for all the help.

I have a line on a Lincoln Mark VIII rear diff/axle/hubs. My understanding is that this is an 8.8" rear-end also, and most certainly IRS.

This rear-end was used with the 4.6L V8s (280hp) .. if I recall.

Can someone confirm this? I'm still looking myself so any help would be appreciated.

Also looking into the Jag rear-end which was Dana-based.
