Hi Thomas: It will be way too wide! Flange to Flange on our Mav/Comet approx. 51 1/4" and to axle face is approx. 56 1/4". If you have fabricating/welding skills, you can shorten the housing, add leaf spring perches and use your existing axles..... David
Thanks for the info. I kind of thought it should be about 56 inches long And thought the disc brakes would be good But looks like to much work for that to work
I've heard with some modification a mid-to-late 90s Explorer has an 8.8 w/ posi and easily available disc brakes.
