The shop that installed my gears did not set the back lash properly and now i'm in search of a new rear end with 373s already installed so I don't have to deal with this anymore. I found a fox rear end local to me and i have a couple questions that no one can seem t answer.

What is the difference between the fox rear end and the 94-98 rear end. I've heard everything from the housing is wider to its just the axles that make up the difference in order to have rear discs.

I really need to know whats going on because I need a new rear and this is a good price.

If all I have to do is swap over my axles and then my disc setup thats not a big deal at all and can be done in an hour or so...

What is the rear end in your car doing that would make you suspect incorrect backlash, re shiming the rear end isn't that hard to do and if their isn't to many miles on your gears you might be able to get by with doing that.
