Re: 05-UP MUSTANG REAR?

You would have to completely redesign the chassis and suspension because third and fourth gen f-bodies use a torque arm suspension. It's easier to install a diff designed to fit under a third gen.

Cheap is a relative term until you figure out it will cost more to install it than what a bolt in diff would cost.

we plan to make a brace and use the factory upper control arm and attach to the body trying to find a donor car to mock it up
