Installing a Ridetech Bolt-On 4-Link into your 1964-1972 GM A Body has never been easier with the help of Ridetech’s Ford 9” Rear End Assemblies. They are powder coated Satin Black and include all bracketry for a bolt-in installation.
The 9” Ford housings are a great foundation for putting torque to the pavement. The housings feature a webbed center section with internal gussets with 1/4″ wall 3” diameter tubes and billet steel flanges (New Style Big Bearing/Torino). The pinion is offset 1” and the axle flange is offset 2 ½”. Available in a stock axle flange to axle flange width of 61.25″ or narrowed to 56″ to satisfy mini-tubbed applications.
These housings include both a drain plug and jack pad and Grade 8 T-bolt hardware for sufficient strength where you need it. 3rd member studs are pre-installed and ready to accept a third member.
The included 31-spline axles are heat treated from 1541H Alloy and feature 5” x 4 ¾” bolt pattern and Grade 8 1/2”-20 x 2” wheel studs. Timken SET20 bearings are pressed onto the axles which also include the bearing retaining plates.
