Here is everything you ever needed to know about 9 inch rear and more.....

If it's from an early Bronco, then I believe it's the right length, but the spring perches will need to be flipped

its from an 84 bronco

84 Bronco, then you'll have to narrow it along with flipping the perches.

narrowing it, flipping perches, moser axels....

You are talking a cool grand just for that stuff!!

Talk to the boys at Currie. The actual cost to narrow the rear end is not that much. The axles add more and of course the perch relocation would also add. If the axles do not taper at the end they can be cut and re-splined which is not as bad as a new set.

I had less than $500 in mine including new axles and freight to and from California and Georgia.
