    CHEAP 8.8 Trac Loc...but will it work?

    http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=FMS%2DM%2D4204%2DF288&view=1&N=700+150+4294925134+4294918887+4294908331+4294925008+&appfilter=1


    Will this unit work with my car?

    Seems summit lists almost every panther EXCEPT mine for this thing, although I'm pretty sure my rear diff isn't any different from anyone elses, why isn't it on the application list???

    Just want to be sure before I order it.

        Should work since it's a 28-Spline.

          Cool, just wanted to be sure, I didn't see any LTD vics on the application list.

            Yeah, 8.8" 28 spline is the answer.

              Hm.... application list shows Mercury Grand Marquis from '79 to '98 ... that's enough to convince me! I badly need improved traction for cheap myself, so maybe this is the ticket.

                Wonder why they say ending year is 1998... This should work on my '03, too, right?

                      Some time they did change to a 31 spline carrier....I think it was in 03... Not positive though.

                        I think it's a pretty good price for a new one don't you think??

                            Not bad for a new one, but you can get a rebuilt one for half that..I paid $125 for mine. Had it in 2 cars over 8 years beating the crap out of it in 2 different cars. One rebuild for the heck of it 2 years ago.

                              Sounds like a pretty impressive deal. Where do you go to get stuff like that?
