The guys went to install my new gears last night and the housing is bent too bad to repair. It also tore up the T2R. So I need a good 8.8 housing and I will purchase a new T2R.

Jerry, I have a spare. Unknown origin, etc. You are welcome to come get it.
'86 Mustang Coupe - CMC2 34
I sent you a text. Great offer!
Anyone have some thoughts on welding a section of my old housing to the Fox unit Wade has? I have the welding technology but I don't know how well it would hold up.

Great question for Dan... is it cast steel vs. cast iron?

CMC-NT01 FTW!
The center section is cast but the axle tubes are steel. I may look a little longer. I have already had to purchase a new T2R and a gear and bearing set. If I go with a earlier than 1999 housing I will have to purchase new axles also.Originally Posted by Fbody383

Thank you Wade for always being willing to help a fellow racer. I wish I was as willing to help others as you are. Your a good man.
I found a complete rear end out of a 2004 GT a few minutes ago for $300.00 so I will go that way so I don't have to cut and weld. I bought a new T2R this morning and the gears a few weeks ago. Now I just have to camber it and get a little toe in it. Al is going to do that for me. LOL.
Someone please tell me why the gearing on a CMC car makes so little difference. Big shock when Aaron and later Kevin were so fast using 3:27 gears. I would have thought the 3:73 or 4:10 or even higher would have made a big difference in acceleration. Bryan and I can come out of a corner and with his 4:10's and my 3:31's it's almost a dead heat. I personally like shifting less but I don't understand why that is not a huge disadvantage.
