F150 8.8

[Callmehickross]

Anybody ever put one of these on a mj and if so was the width difference extremely noticeable or no

 

Pictures would be appreciated if possible

Unsure on the width. I'd imagine it would definitely be wider, however weren't those 150's 5x5 bolt pattern? That's one of the pluses of the Explorer 8.8 is to be able to keep your current wheels/ match the front.

You want one out of an expedition (or the mercury equivalent....Mountaineer ?) not an F150 

That will get you

7/8" narrower
4.5 on 5 pattern
Axle shafts are bigger than 44
And you can usually find them with 4.10 position and disk btraks

you mean Explorer, not Expedition.  :thumbsup:    95-01 explorer/mountaineer have disks

 

car-part.com can usually find you one in a nearby junkyard

I did the 8.8 swat to my xj, I did need wheel spacers to get the rims/tires out enough.

Sorry yes ...my ford speak is wrong...strange how I got the more obscure Mercury module right??

I believe GordoSmasho on naxja installed a F150 8.8 in his XJ.

do you recall what he has up front?  I have a 9" under my MJ (same sorta thing just a bit older), but it doesn't match the stock MJ front axle at all.

I think he is running a JK 44
