I'm looking to get the rear end rebuilt on my girls 86 gt.Looking to install 373's and rebuild the trac lock,new bearings and seals.Where can I get this done at a decent price?I texted NORCALSTANGS in the vendor section and got no response.Thanks in advanced.

I was slow to take the hint, so I'm taking a break from CAFords for the rest of the month. Now excuse me while I enjoy some cereal. Mmmmm Mmmmm good. Who else wants to join me?

OK thanks.How about any websites to get the 373 gear install kit and the trac lock kit?So far I found it all on lmr.com.373 kit is $259 and the trac lock kit is $109.I just want to have everything ready.Thanks again for the input.

50resto is probably the best place to get the parts imo...make sure to get the pinion flange, axle bearings, and if you have the extra money, upgrade to 31 spline axles and a FR diff cover...

When I go to 50resto.com it sends me to latemodelrestoration.com.Can you elaborate on the pinion flange?I figured it came in the kit they sell that comes with the 373 rear end gear kit.Wouldn't I have to upgrade the trac lock to 31 spline aslo if I go that route?Definitely looking for a diff cover.Thanks for your input.

Fasho,I'll let you know.I thought there was alot more people that did this on cafords.I have yet to get a price quote on the labor.When I had my first mustang I had two guys that did this for a living.One left the state and the other got lost.So I'm forced to find some one.I'm not necessarily looking for a shop,Just someone with experience that someone could vouch for.

Those are the best prices I've seen.I would definitely do that for my car but I think the 31 spline is a little over kill for her.I would aslo have to find 4 lug 31 splines.Any suggestions on where to get it done?Thanks for the input.

I can say that ordering from these guys is AWESOME. my 410s were $126 plus 10 bucks shipping... FMS, great deal... I see people selling there shit used for that. Also sales mean was good to deal with and changed my order for me with no hassle no fee.
