Just so I dont look stupid alone.. ill drag Jim in on this.
[haha, sorry buddy]

Can someone post a picture of a CHRYS 8.75 and a ford 9

I found a whole bunch of rear ends grown over with grass and i dont know how to tell the difference. And trying to search the answer within threads on here would take quite a while. like tube demensions. how many bolts.. stuff like that.. length of pumkin! you know, i feel dumb but you guys always have the right answer. thanks.

I'm no expert, but here's a couple of things I found and saved.

And for Ford 9" housings, check out this website: http://www.kevinstang.com/Ninecase.htm

The easy way i tell is by the wheel cylinder bleeder screws... chryslers are small 1/4 inch ... fords are noticebly larger 3/8 ..... once you see them you cant miss the difference... anyways it works for me

Not to mention that the center chunk on an 8 3/4 is one piece while the Ford is a two piece bolt together and has a noticeably oval shaped housing center.

Great job 65s and that was one excellewnt Ford I.D page. WOW!

The easiest way to ID 8 3/4 center sections are by the nubers on the side of the snout. Look for 489, 741, 742 rears.
