Re: 9 inch rear with stock disc brakes...???

I did buy the trailing arm brackets from ECE that are supposed to weld right up to an axle. Unfortunately the Lincoln 9 has a bit of a conical shaped housing and care needs to be taken in welding them to the 9" housing to get the correct angle, some grinding is necessary to align them. Mine got a bit off and I did not realize this until it was too late. My custom brackets were wide enough to accommodate a bit of a skewed angle but I will know for next time.
