9 inch ID

[elwood]

Hey guys, I was given this 9 inch and am not sure what it is out of.
Its 57 inches from the inside to the inside of the backing plates.
Hoping someone could tell by the mounts on it.
It looks like it says 82 on the back side.
Thanks guys.
I want to order brake parts and drums for it and stick it in my 50 F1..
Need more pictures ?

Elwood, does it have 4 1/2" or 5 1/2" wheel bolt pattern ?

Hey Lanny, Its a 5 on 5 1/2

With the 5 1/2" bp, and the spring perches on Top of the axle housing,
the rear end is prolly out of a pickup or Econoline.
Is there an alum tag on one of the pumpkin studs yet, if so, it would
have some numbers on it.
Many of the pickup rears had 31 spline axles, pull one and count the splines.

Hey Lanny, Ill pull a axel and count tomorrow, and I think I can see a PU in the yellow wrecking yard marker on the back side ..

take the metal tag on the 3rd member to your local Ford dealer parts dept., it has all the info on it you need. yr, ratio, model etc.

 

[elwood]

there is no tag on it.

Elwood, my book shows its a rear end from 57 to 72 f100

 

[elwood]

Thanks ford3, can you tell me what your looking at to see that ?

 

[ford3]

its a site called (High Q Ties 9" Ford info), type that in your search box and it will take you to the site, a lot of info on 8", 8.8", and 9" ford rear ends

Sorry, The one picture looked like it had the tag still on the one bolt near the top of the 3rd member. must be a brake line bracket or something else.

Because of the ring gear bump on the back that means it is newer than 1960. Not sure the exact year they went from smooth back to the bump but for sure 60 was smooth. Are the brakes still on it? Does it have the cable that runs from the top pin down to the star wheel? Indicates self adjusting which came out in 66.
