2006 V6 Pony Rear Axle bearings Info please

Does anyone know if the Ford Racing M-1225-B1 Rear Axle bearing kit with Seals will work in this Mustang?

Unless you replaced the old axle with an 8.8 inch rear axle in that v6, no. You'll want to do something like this:

The v6 came with a 7.5" axle, so the parts are different.

Also, unless there's a reason to do it like you've upgraded that v6 to put a lot more power to the wheels, you should be able to get the standard Motorcraft, or any, really, axle bearings and seals at your local parts store, and there's no need to buy the Ford Racing for the V6. If you want Ford original, go to the dealership and get them.

I did the Motorcraft for my GT's 8.8, 'cause stock.

Hope that helps!

houtex Thank you. I took my 06 Pony to get the Air Bag recall in and they found the Rear Axle seals leaking. So I am going to replace them and since I will be taking out the axles I am going to replace the bearings as well. Since the Ford Racing part is pretty inexpensive I was hoping to use them.
