Hello, i've got a 1969 mustang with a bad rear end. I want to replace it all with fairly nice stuff but i don't feel like paying big cash. I saw you could take a rear axle from an older ford like an explorer or mustang and it be fairly cheap. What vehicle should i try to get one from? and what all needs to be done to get it to work? please help

The swap you're talking about is "cheap" because it's a lot of work.

Okay, why? What do you plan on doing with the car that stock parts won't tolerate? What's gone bad in your current diff?

but i don't feel like paying big cash

Cheap, fast, reliable. Pick two.
