I found a turbo coupe rear end and I was wondering if this would bolt right into my 85 with out any problems?? Is it the same width as the other 8.8s?? Ive heard that ill need a brake proportioning valve and a new park brake cable. The guy only wants 200, but it needs rotors and pads.

its wider. I think it is .75" wider per side so 1.5" over all.
