    I was wondering this myself but don't know too much about 3rd gens. Even though it's limited slip didn't they use like 2.73 gears back then? I'm not too sure. If it's 3.42 that would be cool. But since it's from 88 would you really want a rear end that old in your car even if it is interchangeable?

      No you cant put a 3rd gen. rear end in a 4th gen. car. I would check local salvage yards. That is where I got my rear end and it has rear disc brakes and a 3.42 gear.

            Building the Tom Henry RS
            Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.
            By: Hib Halverson


            At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
            Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
