what posi rear axles are direct bolt in for fox bodys.will a lincoln lsc work?i got the capri from trunk and want 2 get rid of the peg leg.thanks 4 the help
 
Take some measurements of the track width, center section location, control arm and spring perch locations and compare them to the 7.5" in the Capri. I think it might work, but just be a little wider in the rear.
 
I would not expect it to be a bolt-in replacement. Swapping spring perches or shock mounts is easy if you have a welder. Us Jeep guys swap this kinda shit all the time.
 
cool thanks for all the help i guys.i got a great deal on a nice 8.8 today so now i just need 2 bolt it in.:cheers:
 
Ranger left rear and Aerostart right rear with 5 lug Ranger drums go right in and keep the stock fox body track width.

94-98 axles go in, but you'll need to get the antimoan brackets, calipers, rotors etc....they are also 3/4" longer per side, so plan on running 17X8 +30mm offset wheels or 17X9 +45mm offset wheels so they won't stick out past the quarters edge. 17X10.5" are out of the question with 94-98 axles.
