Drivetrain Tech / Rebuilding TC 8.8 for my 88 sport
Quote from: Aerocoupe;458669
The factory TC e-brake cables will work on the 94-98 Mustang V6/GT calipers so I would simply rob the axles and everything else off of a 94-98 V6 Mustang and bolt it all in.  Parts are easy to come by in a parts store and you have the option to go to the Cobra brakes.

That actually sounds like a great idea! But I'm not sure about the 28 spline axle.

I just drove 183 miles for this, I hope most of this is surface rust.  Time to put a parts list together any suggestions on brakes? I planning a five lug conversion I would like to keep TC brake components if possible.  But not sure about parts availablity in the future......

I first want to start by saying, this is a awesome site!  So much info its great!

Now I'm posting because I'm ready to put more ponys under my hood.  I was out muscled by a
2015 chevy Malibu.  Really! But at 155hp what do you expect. Lol anyway I plan to get a trick flow
Bolt on that claims 350hp but first I want to upgrade my differential to a 8.8 positraction or more specifically Torsten diff with a 31 spine axle and 5lug conversion (front and rear) will a 8.8 rear fit directly on my 88 sport if ordered from rock auto?  Will I have to change axle housing? Is my 88 sport 8.8 posi anyway? Or is it just the TC
