  • 93-02 V-6 Vs V-8 rear end?

    I was wondering are the v-6 f-body rear ends the same as the v-8 rear ends for these years? I know some of the V-6 cars had drum brakes but are the mounts on the housing and axles the same?

      Emergency brake cables are different because of drum verses disk drakes.

        but later V6s had Disc brakes at least my 2001 did.

        I think 98+ V6s had rear disc brakes.

          Thanks that was my main concern.

            Yeah - not so much of a big deal on 98+.

              One other difference was 3 channel anti lock brakes verses 4 channel anti lock brake sensors. Later versions had 4 channel, don't remember when it was cut in production.
