Its been a minute since I had my 09 V6, but when I did, I was able to swap over the front and rear bumpers. Pretty much most of the suspension should be able to swap over, however you might be better off considering some aftermarket parts. The entire rear end should be able to swap over if you...
It did come from a wrecked car but I was sure to have the axles checked because I didn’t want to put money into a rear end that had any damage from a crash. Everything as far as I know is straight and true.

Completely skipped my mind when I was with him...
Okay so just got back from running a few experiments with my mechanic. He definitely felt what I was talking about and so we had the car up in the air and checked for any signs of anything being the culprit. The only thing we really found were the wheels were slightly off centered (my bad mustve...
To my knowledge the gears were from the factory.
Not sure if a new crush sleeve was installed but I’ll be sure to ask. If there wasn’t a crush sleeve installed how hard is it to install? Would it require draining out the diff again?

I recently bought an 8.8 off a 2013 GT with 3.73 gears to put in my 2009 V6. I had my mechanic install the flange for me and thought it would be as simple as that.
After taking it out for a drive I realized that I got a lot of whine only when decelerating in gear (no whine when decelerating in...
Thanks all, after looking further into the topic the only conclusion I can come possibly make is that the 2011+ V6 had a different flange than the GT of the same years. The 2011+ V6 flange also looks very similar to the cobra flange that is usually needed for the swap, so I’m willing to bet that...
So I’ve been looking into the 8.8 rear end swap and came across a really good deal for a rear end of what looks to be a 2013 track pack.
I know that some 2011’s and up have the correct flange from the factory, but since the Track Pack has upgraded parts in the diff, I’m not sure if the flange...
Looking again, the scrapes aren’t as bad as I remember, they’re very insignificant but just the positioning of the dent and the size is my main concern. From far away its hardly visible which gives me some comfort and is why I’ve taken my time deciding on the best route to take.

Thanks for the help guys! Starting to sound like I may have to replace one fender because the paint is scraped and the edge of the fender is bent inwards and get PDR on the other other little nicks I have around the car.

I’m not sure exactly where the owner ordered his pair from but I just remember thinking they were Raxiom until I saw Eagle Eyes printed on the back instead. My best guess would he got them off ebay.

The previous owner of my car included a pair from Eagle Eyes when I bought my car, they worked well just the clear coat was peeling off very little but I’m not too sure how long he had them for.
