Great stuff. I've got a stock '98 GT SRA and the rear end is the last thing I've got left to do for my Cobra. Thanks for the pointers! Thinking about a 31 spline eaton true trac setup with the braces you've got.
@@2ndshiftracing I was thinking about having a 3-5k budget for the rear end build. My only issue is I don't have access nor do I know how to weld, so I'm going to have to pay someone to do a majority of the installs. The car is 99% street driven, but I'd like to be able to hurt some feelings on the track once or twice a year. Plus I like the idea of no more clutch packs with the True Trac. Maybe it's overkill?
This was really good. Ive been out of the loop for a while ans when you daid Racecraft a little light came on. I know all the team z shit is legit. I run baseline on my fox body. Always did me well. I like these and might factor them into my rear suspension
Wouldn’t it have been easier to mount the relocation brackets before the bottom brace? Also why not weld the inside of the brackets? Not being negative I enjoyed the videos and look forward to seeing more.
Another great video 👍🏻
Thank you!
Nice to see some fabrication good job !
Thank you! Will only get better!
Nice stuff! Im in the process of repairing my rear end now and its the perfect time to do this mod. Thanks Garret.
No problem!
Thanks! going to be a nice 8.8!
Fabulous. Well done and easy to understand.
Thanks for the feedback!

The truetrac is a solid piece for racing. But…if you’re on a budget, the Ford Racing Cobra Posi will work fine for a fraction of the cost.

The work extremely well. We’ve cut 1.25’s on them with a stick car
Have you guys narrowed this rearend with these brackets on it? Or the bracket is too close to the rim to trim any from the outside of the axle tube…?
Yes, shorten 8.8 with 9” ends. Clears wonderfully.
@@2ndshiftracing how much did you cut off each end, and what BS wheels?
@@TomR1211 Think it’s like 2.5” per side 4.5 bs on the wheels. There’s a photo of the red car on our instagram.

Eh…maybe. We did weld it on the inside also. But not by itself cause it will flex and move when put under stress. So you need to weld the outside too.
