Rock Equipment Complete 8.8 Rear Axle Assembly (Explorer)

The Ford 8.8 rear axle assembly from a Explorer is super heavy duty, and is very simple to install in Jeep vehicles. Includes all new parts.

These axle assemblies are brand new! They feature a 5x4.5 bolt pattern, 3.55 gears, disc brakes, 31 spline axle shafts, 8.8” diameter ring gear (D35 is 7.5"), pinion flange, 120% stronger than a Dana 35, only 20 pounds more than a Dana 35, limited slip differential stock, and strong 3-1/4” diameter tubes.

The width of the 8.8 assembly is 5/8” per side narrower then the Dana 35. This is a very minor drawback, and will work if you have wheels with less backspacing than stock - stock Jeep wheels will not work. The Ford 8.8 is not compatible with anti-lock brake equipped Jeep vehicles!

We can also custom-configure these axle assemblies to your exact specification. Please call us for details and pricing!

Rear end is not high-pinion. The rear end in the pictures is upside-down.
