[QUOTE="railroad, post: 16642951, member: 13485"] I think you are confusing the 8.8" with a 9" rear axle. The 9" has a center carrier, removable as an assemble. The 8.8" is assembled inside the axle housing. The ring gear carrier, Torsen, Trackloc, open, etc sets inside the axle housing. You have shims to set side bearing preload. I would suggest swapping the complete '13 into your ride, less the brakes. Do not open your brake lines. Unbolt the brake assembly from your axle and bolt them onto the '13 axle. Check the pinion flange and make sure they are the same. Someone has probably done this swap and can advise of any other issues to be addressed. [/QUOTE]
