How hard is it to swap a complete rear end out of a 95 GT?? Is it something u can do without a lift?

It takes two guys with a floor jack & jack stands about 4-6 hours to drop the old rear end out and bolt the new one up. You will need to modify the brake system extensively. See http://www.svo73mm.cjb.net/ for help. DO NOT skip reading this site before you get started. There is much essential information there.

None it's a stright forward swap. Jrichker thought it was going in a Fox body.

swap it and just bleed the brakes. 2 guys, a floor jack and a 30pack to relieve some frustrations
