Does anyone know if a stock Fox body bolt into a New Edge body. Not that i'm trying to put one in but. I found a 9" for a fox body new and curious if it will bolt in. I've been told it would but i do not trust to many Facebook mechanics. I looked for housing widths and only found rearend width wheel to wheel and not end to end. any way thanks for any info

99-04 8.8 housings are 55.5" from flange to flange.

79-98 8.8 housings are all the same width 54 1/8" from flange to flange

1999-2004 - Disc Brakes & Axles Are 1.5” longer making the width 3” wider than 86-93

Axle Length - 30 11/16"

Rear End Width - 61.0625"

Great thanks, the 9" i'm looking at is 53.75 so it looks like it will work with a little extra tire area.
