    Does anyone know if a 9in rear end out of a Ford Torino would fit a maverick without too much trouble, i have an oppurtunity to get one for around 100 bucks.

    What year ? I think only the 68-69 are a direct fit. The 70-71's I think are wider, but still leaf sprung. Not 100% on all this, but should be close.

    but 100 bucks for a complete 9 out of a torino is still a deal, you can have it cut dwon later!

    If it's got a traction loc unit, yea, $100 is a deal. Otherwise, offer em $50-75.
