Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the Ford 9-inch rear end stronger than others?
The strength comes from its hypoid gear design, which creates more gear tooth contact—about 10% more than typical rears. Add in the ability to adjust the third member right on the bench, and you’ve got a setup that’s easier to dial in and holds up under serious power.

When was the Ford 9-inch originally produced?
Ford built the 9-inch from 1957 through 1986, using it across a wide range of cars and trucks. Its durability and ease of service are why it’s still a top choice decades later.

How is it different from a Ford 8.8-inch rear end?
The 9-inch uses a larger ring gear and features a drop-out third member. That makes it easier to swap gears or rebuild, especially for racing. The 8.8 is solid too, but the 9-inch is favored for track use because it’s stronger and more serviceable.

Can this rear end be narrowed for my build?
Yes. You can cut the housing and axles to your target width, then weld on suspension brackets to match your car. That’s especially common for custom or race builds where every inch counts.
