For the leaf spring perches, you'll need two of these. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/AFC-20232/ They need to be welded on, so unless you've got a welder, you're going to need to take it somewhere. If you've already got a 5-lug axle in the '66, why do you want to swap over the 8.8 out of the '92?

Suspension wise, NOTHING will transfer over from the '92 to the '66. They're not even remotely similar.

well put ^

and if its already 5lug, why use the 8.8? for the limited slip? if you use that then you going to have to convert it to 5 lug, by the time you do that, you couldof bought a used posi 3rd member for the 8" thats already in there.

and if your keeping efi, id recommend the RJM (i believe) efi 5.0 harness that plugs rite into the factory dash harness, much easier and cleaner. but thats another $575..

for the rearend swap you will have to have the shock mounts cut off an have the leaf spring perches welded on. one on each side. but of course you will need some traction bars to avoid the wheel hop!

if he wants the 8.8 he does. old 8 inch is more expensive than a 9inch to build, u may or may not get to get parts. the 5.0 rear end is way more versatile for disc gears and posi and overall strength
