The legendary 9-inch Ford rear end has been the “go-to” dragstrip differential for the past 65 years. Moser Engineering has been the reliable source for all things to upgrade performance and racing differentials for the past 40 years by designing new and stronger components for all differentials as the cornerstone of their business.
You can get the Moser-manufactured M88 housing pre-fabricated for several OEM suspension mounting points or provide information to Moser with your needed dimensions for special order width and components.
One of Moser’s newest innovations is the Moser M88 rearend package based on the parameters of the Ford 8.8 rearends. From street to all-out racing, the 8.8 differential has become popular with its abundant junkyard availability, and Moser takes Ford’s “little brother” rearend design to the next level.
“We basically took a very successful unit, which has sold countless units literally worldwide through Ford, and made it that much better,” says Moser’s Jeff Anderson.
Since the 8.8 factory platform contains many strong engineering points, the Moser engineers took that foundation and improved upon it. This new housing includes a higher ductile-strength nodular steel construction, a larger 3 x .025-inch-wall seamless DOM axle tubes, and larger main caps.
Several differential options, such as 31- to 40-spline axles and spools, plus gear, stud, finish, and brake options, can fill your needs for whatever application you have.
The Moser M88 rear is part of the Muscle Pak offerings. On Moser’s website, simply check the boxes with your desired rearend options, and it will ship in just three to five business days.
“We’ve found a fantastic way to better the factory 8.8-inch rearend,” Anderson elaborated. “Moser’s high-strength bearings and setup kits allow the 8.8 rear to handle much more power than they were originally.”
From taking on your project build to filling out measurements on the Moser order form for a complete differential, Moser Engineering is a top source for the popular Ford 8.8 option. Like many rearend designs, such as the Dana, GM 12-bolt, and the 8-3/4 Mopar units, Moser works to refine the rearends’ strength for motorsports duty.
