Ford 8.8 Ring Gear Thickness

[burrellsjeep]

I need to know how think a 4.88 or 5.13 ring gear is for a Ford 8.8. Also the outside diameter would be helpful, Just want to see is there is a difference in diameter, I don't believe so.

~1 7/8" from the highest tip of the tooth to the flat on the back of the ring gear.

Diameter did not change.

We have both in stock if you need one.......

Shaving the 8.8?

I am assisting in building a cover for my 8.8, Just wanted to be sure that it would clear a larger gear when its time to swap them out.

Kyle - Zubs (ECGS) answered my question, Just needed that measurement.
