The Ford 9" axle is one of my favorites. The fact they have been around since 1954 and only stopped production in the late '90's shows just how good the axle really is! The fact that it was standard in everything from smaller dump trucks in the 50's, full size sedans in the 60's, 70's & 80's, and Ford trucks from the F150 through many of the F250's shows its versatility. Lastly we have NASCAR, I know we are an offroad parts company but NASCAR adopted this axle early on and made pretty much any gearing available and kept the cost down.

This is the complete kit for changing out your rear-end brakes. Changing from drum brakes to disc brakes is easy, and all the parts you need to complete the conversion of your rear axle are included in this kit. In most cases it will also save at least 70lbs! The only reason these are weld on brackets only is that the Ford 9" axle had 3 different flanges over the years and the housings can be difficult to identify.

This kit is for a 3.5" tube which is common on many aftermarket axle housings, this kit comes comes with Ford 5 lug rotors from the front axle of an '89 Ford bronco. They use Chevy 3/4 ton front calipers and can be used for Jeep, Dodge, and IH 5 on 5.5" axles also.

Complete Kit Includes:

    • 1 Pair 3.5" ID Weld On Disc Brake Brackets
    • 2 Weld on Brake Line Tabs
    • 2 Brake Line Clips
    • 2 Brake Calipers
    • 2 STEEL BRAIDED Hoses with 10mm Banjo Bolt Fittings
    • 4 New Brake Pads
    • 2 New Rotors


      *Note* Rotor installs inside the flange, some rotors will require a small bevel (Some Ford only) on the inner circle if the axle shaft is tapered.


      *NOTE* Don't forget to re-bleed your brakes once you've installed your new conversion kit.


      *NOTE* A Proportioning Valve is recommended, this will allow you to fine tune your front/rear stopping power bias. Your front axle should always do about 70% of the work.

Works well. You need to drill a 3/8” hole
Appears to be well made, alignment bar slides in nicely. As stated, you need to drill a hole in the bar for the gimble bearing driver, the directions are not clear, what I did was before I take out the old gimble bearing, put an O ring on the bar close to the last step on the bar, slide the bar all the way in, then carefully slide the bar out, this marks the distance from the back of the gimble bearing to where the shaft on the outdrive bottoms out, move the O ring a 1/4” towards the stepped part of the alignment tool (this is so you won’t bottom out the alignment tool when driving the gimble bearing in) then slide the driver puck up to the O ring and use a 3/8” diameter transfer punch through the side hole in the puck to mark the bar. You need to drill a 3/8” diameter hole in the alignment bar, two V blocks, some clamps, and a drill press will make drilling much easier, after the bar is securely mounted and centered in the drill press, use a center drill, then 1/4” drill first, using plenty of oil, drill all the way through, then use the 3/8” drill, deburr both sides and you should be good to go. People complain that it doesn’t come pre-drilled, the reason is that not all out drives are the same so you have to fit it to the outdrive that you have. Fortunately, I have a machine shop at my house and have a jig setup with various drill bushings, but the method I described above should work for you. Just make sure you’re perfectly centered and secure before you start drilling.

Worked for Volvo Penta SX Gimbal Bearing
Very heavy tool, I was surprised. Pulled my bearing like it was nothing. Putting the new bearing in was a little more difficult as you have to drill a hole in the engine alignment shaft where it will work for your particular outdrive. Not hard, but it does not come pre-drilled as the required depth for each particular gimbal bearing differs by manufacturer and model. Measure your bearing placement before removal and check that it was installed correctly in the first place. The bearing should line up with the grease fitting and the o-rings on the drive shaft should end up riding in the middle of the bearing. once you have your measurement drill the hole, I used a drill press. I suppose you could use it on multiple outdrive models as long as you can drill more holes.

Great value
This kit worked perfectly on my Alpha one mercury outdrive. I saw a lot of people mention that it was a hassle to drill the hole when you better have all this alignment stuff. I threw it in use my regular drill drill guide and then the second hole was lined up. Pulling Gimble be very easy. I did have to adjust it up at an angle because my bearing was sitting in their crooked and it came out the second time I made the adjustment to the angle. I would highly recommend this.
