i ordered 355-1 gear ratio for my 66 mustang. i want to rebuild the limited slip in the rear end. but i cant find any kits to do so, i built the other rear end in my other mustang, its a rear end out of a 91 fox body i fabricated to fit in, its an 8.8, and i can find stuff all day long for that. so if you know of any 8" rebuild kits for me that would be great thanks for the help!

All it takes to rebuild the limited slip is new clutches, correct?

My understanding is that 8" LS diffs use the same clutch pack as a 9" LS diff.
Someone else might chime in to confirm, but I believe that is the case.

The spline count's are the same between the 28's, or rather the axles are the same. Don't know if the clutches are different. Summit or any of the aftermarket axle companies will have rebuild kits. All you go to do is look.
