i want the drums so i can fit 15" wheels. after looking around town it seems there are a pile of those 9.5's around so i am sure i can get one with decent brakes on it still and in my 373 gear ratio too. probably cost me about $500 for the rear with about 100k on it. $450 for the posi. $20? for the perches. $300 for a pair of axles. gasket and oil. i am prety sure $1300 will get it done and it should be strong.

Found the company that makes the rear brace kits for the 10 bolt rears. Same people that make the Ultimate covers...go figure.

This is what I will be doing to mine. I may just make my own.

I also found a write-up on installation on a mustang 8.8.

Yeah, by the time you buy all the pieces individually and the trouble you could spend just a few bucks more and now have to worry with it.
