Scored a 9 inch out of an early bronco

They are 5 on 5.5

 

Sorry to hi jack but I have a similiar question. I am building a 30 sedan on a deuce frame not channeled. My 9" is to wide and I need it narrowed. Can somebody tell me what a common width is for my app? 56" hub to hub is what I keep reading...

 

Hey Fella's, Got a question for ya.........
I just came across and bought a 9" out of a 77 Bronco, I got it to put in my
95 Silverado Southern Comfort Edition pick up truck. Haven't torn into it yet,
but plan on freshening it up after I do all that's necessary for it to fit in the Chevy.
Question is: Did this rear end come with the Trac-Lock?
I've searched the net to see, but got different answers.
Thanks for any info on this......... Ken

 

better put on flame proof clothing..

 

Only missed the OT cut off by 30 years

 

The hot ticket for the cl***ic bronco rear end used to be to swap Lincoln Versailles rear disc brake ***emblies on to them. They bolt right on, you just needed to turn the axle hub flange down a little. This is what I run on my OT 76 Bronco. Been this way since the 90s when I put it together. The 76-77 large bearing rear ends are the desirable ones for off roading, but they all should work for a light weight on topic build. Today there is any number of sources for axles, lockers, and brake kits. 4 wheel disc brakes look good on anything running open wheels like spokes or Cragers.

 

Not to mention, he did it by dragging up a 12 year old thread.

 

They could come with trac-lok as well as 28 or 31 spline, depends on how it was ordered
