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

Hey Mike im not sure if were talkin about the same axle. the one i got came out of a 1995 ford explorer. it only has these 2 small c-clips that go on the end of each axle once they are installed into the 3rd member. those and the brake caliper are the only thing that holds the axles in. the old nine inch i had had a retaning plate that was held in with 4 bolts like you were saying. the new one has 4 bolts also but they only hold the brake caliper braket and the e-brake mount. ill put a couple of pictures to try to explain.
