    Lightbulb Blew the rear in my 55 and want to change it

    I have a '55 daily driver that I blew the rear end in the other day. I have a chance to buy a (hate to say it a Ford) 8.8 that came out of a 1996 Ford Explorer that is a 3:73 posi. I guess my question is will it pretty much bolt in to my 55 with some modifications and what needs to be done to it to get it to be street worthy. I am open to other suggestions on what other options are available to me to get my car back on the road. Thanks

    after doing some research I think I will just try to buy a new 10 bolt rear center section since the one that blew is in half. Anyone in the Magnolia Tx area know of a place to get one?
