Hi, the description for this 9" Ford rear end specific for the Tribute-T chassis states; "All suspension mounting brackets (both frame and axle) are fully welded, making this rear axle option a complete bolt-on addition to the Tribute T." If I order just the Tribute-T chassis and later order this specific Tribute-T 9" rear end is there any additional welding to the chassis or rear end needed? Thank you.

I have a tribute t but the 9" rear end is not center pinion and the yolk hits the body. Do you sell a axle housing with brackets and with one end trimmed to center the pinion? The 9" I have is 28 spline.

Even though the title says "Tribute T-Bucket" could the axle be used on an original 1930-31 Ford Model A Cabriolet? If not is there another 9 Inch Ford Rear End that is compatible with the Model A and a Posi-Traction Third Member Assembly # 91048345-28-370 ?

Tribute T rear end I noticed the updated rear suspension features locating links with heim joints. In the interest of being more period correct could a builder safely remove or replace these with something else? Suggestions? Also, could the medium arch spring be swapped for the high arch or would it be too wide for the crossmember? Thanks!
