Re: [Amc-list] Ford Explore Rear End in a 70 Javelin?

IIRC you are looking primarily for a 96 up. I think they can be found on earlier models, but they are few and far between. Getting a 2.80 axle in one? Hmm not sure they went that high. Jeeps stopped at 3:08, 2:80 with 15" is some tall gears. Big heavy 4X4, you may have to get a set of gears out of a misstake and install them. Misstake? hmm, meant to type Mustang, uh, yeah that's what I meant :]
