94-95 SN95 Rear end width?

[68rustang]

Does anybody know what the measurments are for the 8.8" rear in the 94-95 cars? I have the info for foxes, but I need it for the 94-95. Does anyone know where I can find what I am looking for? I have tried a search and come up empty. I am looking for info similar to the attached drawing.

The 94-98 8.8 rear axle assemblies are the same as the 86-93 Fox 8.8 rear axle assemblies.

If you don't believe me, read this page.

As it says, the FRPP 8.8" fits the 1979-1998 Mustangs exactly. The 1999 Mustang was the first 8.8" axle assembly to be different.

ETA: They're the same assemblies, but of course the 86-93 has 4-lug axle shafts and the 94-98 has 5-lug axle shafts.

Thank you for the response. I kind of guessed that was the case but I couldn't find anything that simply stated it. In all my searching people seemed to divide the 8.8's into fox and sn95 with all sn95's being wider. I have a 95 GT 8.8" that I am thinking about using under my 68.

Thanks,
Eric

I have a dealer specification card for my 1995 Cobra and the rear track width is stated at 58.7, front at 60". Hope this helps.

They have to be the same assembly as the 86 - 93 because you can take the axle shafts and the rear brakes from a 94 - 95 and transfer them over to 86 - 93. But overall width will increase slightly after doing this.
