would this car have come with a 9 inch rear? its like a 78 ranchero with the 460. i can get the rear diff for cheap. it looks like a 9 inch but its not easy to see it where its sitting. rest of car/truck is junk
I don t have a Ranchero................ but I own a 77 ltd 2 ,same front clip design like the ranchero ,Im pretty sure mine is 9 inch but it doesn t have the gears for power in it
77 to 79 didn t not have the 460 option ...............just the 351 Windsor or modified
I like to get this dash option instead of the woodgrain finish ..........I remember seeing the chrome option in the Cougar of the same years but I think the Ranchero GT had it

Definitely a nine inch in a later Ranchero, but more than likely a 400 Modified if it isn't a smallblock... The small block versions were actually 302's
I had one with 16,000 miles..

I have access to a 78 ltd 2 for parts.................is the price really worth the work to salvage the rear end ? or? ...........down here I know I ll probably have it for years and real doubt it will sell
Been a lot of years but I believe you re correct with the Ranchero GT having this gauge panel,
Quizzing 57150 will get answers, almost thirty years later he has it in his possession.
