1965 Mustang 8" 3.00:1 Locking Differential Rear End
« on: March 13, 2014, 10:13:19 PM »
Group,

I found out today that my rear end third member is broke and not correct for my car. So add a 8" 3.00:1 locking differential to my list of needed parts.

And this is where I need help. I'm doing a concours correct restoration. What would the correct casting numbers, date stamp and rear end tag be for my car? November 5, 1964 built A-code with 4-speed toploader.

Thanks,

Mike
