Included Standard Features

Spring Pads   Spring Pads - Heavy-duty 1/4-inch thick spring pad mounts are installed in the OEM locations for bolt-in compatibility with the stock leaf spring suspension
     
Billet Housing Ends   Billet Housing Ends - Currie billet late model Ford Torino large bearing housing ends are CNC machined for accuracy and feature provisions for internal or external axle oil seals
     
Performance Axles   Alloy Axles - Currie Performance 31-spline 1541H alloy axles are drilled to match the OE bolt pattern and stud size - Tapered axle bearings shipped loose, so brake-specific components can be installed as required
     
  Bearing Retainers - Heavy-duty retainers assure positive bearing retention and full seal engagement for a long trouble and leak-free services life

 

 

NOTES:

Third Member - Currie housing and axle package requires a standard Ford 9-inch third member set up for 31-spline axles

Brake Lines - Hard brake lines are not included with Housing and Axle Packages. Currie offers universal hard brake line kits that fit a broad range of applications

Aftermarket Brakes - Currie crate rear-ends conform to the ABCS (Aftermarket Brake Configuration Standard). This allows brake kits that use this standard to easily be changed or upgraded without modifying the housing or axles. ABCS brakes use a 2.5-inch brake space with late-model big-bearing Ford housing ends and a 2.80 center hole in the drum or rotor

Wheel Studs - Currie rear-ends use standardized-shank Currie Enterprises wheel studs that allow the following wheel studs to be interchangeable in the axles without drilling: 12mm, 7/16, 1/2, and 1/2 x 3-inch competition
