They fit fine and even if they grow they won't rub. :thumbs_up: However, with the short sidewall on them I doubt they will grow much.

I agree with Glen. I think the 4.10 will be close to ideal for the engine combo you have now. Also know that I went 10.45 at 128 in the Chevelle on a 26x8.5x14 tire so I think you can get that car...

Don't go to an IRS on your car. You can make your car handle just as good with the solid axle and it will be a lot stronger.

Ben, if you want to upgrade to a solid 8.8 I can check with GTR and see...

Can you run a 28 inch tire with 3.73 gears and tell me what mph you show for 6000rpm?

The Explorer center section looks centered. I'll measure mine today and tell you for certain. Also, most Explorers came with 3.73 gears which will be a good gear for the RX-Snake.

It's only offset a little and no it won't matter. If you look under Phil's FJ40 both the front and rear axles are offset to different sides.

Correct. So we just need to go to a wrecking yard and pull one from an Explorer. Shouldn't be hard to get one. Eric97srad and I went a few months ago to buy some frontend part for his 97 Explorer...

The carriers are the same except for spline count unless of course you have a Cobra like mine that came with 31 spline axles.

I haven't measured it yet but I'm sure no matter what we get an 8.8 out of that we will have to have it narrowed because this car is little. It's just about the right size for my 7 year old. I'll...

Not sure but we are better off getting one out of an Explorer because it has disc brakes already instead of dumb I mean drum brakes.

Solid would be easier to install. My Cobra doesn't have the IRS but Seans does and so did my old 94 T-Bird I use to have. Not sure what they take in stock form but Sean hasn't blown his up yet. ...

The IRS in the T-Birds and Cobra have the same 8.8 ring and pinion as the solid 8.8. The difference is that it uses half shafts that are not as strong as the solids axles.
