I'm looking for a place that has a good deal on a complete 9" big bearing with all the bell's and whistles!

I know I could do the junk yard deal and cut this down and weld that...But I dont have the time and expertise for all dat..
Bolt it in and go!
I found a place on Ebay and it seems like a fair price for what Im looking for.

Tell me what you guy's think..



$615 - Bare 9" Housing, 35 Spline Extreme Axles, Bearings, Studs, & Retainers

$1245 - Center Section (Strange Nodular Iron S-Case, Nodular Iron Daytona Pinion Support, 1350 Forged Steel Yoke, Motive Performance Gears, 35 Spline Detroit Locker & Timken Bearings)

$369 - 11" Disc Brake Kit w/ Parking Brake

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$2229 - TOTAL


This would be an extremely strong setup with your choice of gear ratio. It would be a bare housing, so you would need to install your own mounting brackets. We do not have a jig for the Broncos. Other options would include:


+ $125 - Nodular Iron Pro N-Case (Double Ribbed Design)

+ $0 - Aluminum Daytona Pinion Support

+ $0 - Aluminum 1350 Yoke

- $130 - Weld-On Disc Brake Kit (No Parking)

Eric, if I were going to build a 9", the only center section I would use would be the www.truehi9.com 3rd member. Do that with that housing you found with the 35 spline shafts and you'll be good to go. Then go with the disc brake option of choice.

Just my $.02 though.

True, but I would just do a spool. Believe it or not, you won't see that much difference between it and a Detroit anyway. In fact, the spool's road manners on the highway will be BETTER than the Detroit. And, look at the ground clearance gain! You can find a BB housing here for $299 plus free shipping:
http://completeoffroad.com/wsm/i-706_housing-66-77_bronco_big_bearing.html

Then just swap in that 3rd member, shafts for $319, and move your drum brakes over! You are out LESS than what you had posted up before.

very nice....
in all of your searching around did you happen to see any full width axles for sale? The bronco has a front end just waiting for a rear-end match up to get set up.

It doesn't hurt until the bone breaks through the skin...

Rick,

I have a pair of 31 spline Tom's KA Axles that I ran in my full size 85 Bronco. That is the same width as 90% of the 1/2 ton housings out there. They are in great shape, $150 takes them!

Rick,
I had my rearend made to whatever size I needed.
I believe a full width 9" would be an easy find in a U-yank it yard!!

Rick, Chris (elusive on JA) has one for $100 he'll sell. You just need drums for it. The backing plates are there, just no drums.

For a complete housing $2494 shipped
E-brake cables $109
Master cylender $54
Proportioning valve $94
Extreme u bolts $69
Spring Perches $12
Tom Woods drive shaft $350
Misc. oil and brake lines $35

Other then doing a high pinion 3rd member,I believe all the products were the best money could buy.You could shave some money by using your existing drive shaft and drum brakes etc..
Im pretty sure I wont be having any issues with this set up, but time will tell.

This weekend I finally got the Bronco back on the road. Everything installed rather easy and better yet,no "busted" knuckles!


Image Insert:

44.86 KB
Installed new master cylender,proportioning valve and bent new brake lines.


Image Insert:

44.08 KB

Next was the new drive shaft with the 1350 u-joints and the Fourtreks Yoke guard.What a great product!!
Ordered a set of Lokar E-brake cables from Wild Horses,topped off the fluids and bled the brakes.

Next was the break in, and everything worked great!
Now bring on the "Hammers"!!
