The ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE ALL72043 is a complete T-bolt kit built to fasten brake backing plates and brake brackets to early-style Ford 9-inch housing ends. It ships as a set of 8, with each T-head bolt cut to a 1/2-20 thread and matched with lock washers and nuts. This is the hardware fabricators and rear-end builders reach for when mounting brakes to a classic 9-inch axle, where the T-head profile seats flush against the housing flange. If your project uses early-style 9-inch ends, these are the correct fasteners to bolt your brakes down right.
Each bolt measures 1-1/8 inches long with a 1/2-20 thread, the standard for early-style Ford 9-inch housing ends. The T-head design slots into the housing flange and lets the nut torque down without spinning the bolt, which matters when you're working blind behind a backing plate. Construction is steel with a black oxide finish for corrosion resistance and a clean look against the axle. The kit covers a full housing with 8 bolts, 8 lock washers, and 8 nuts, so a builder doing both sides has everything in one package. Confirm your housing ends are early-style 1/2-20 before ordering, since later setups use a different thread. You'll find related Ford pinion hardware and other rear-end parts in our catalog.
Reach for this kit when you're assembling or rebuilding an early-style Ford 9-inch rear end and need to mount brake backing plates or brackets to the housing ends. It's the right call when original hardware is worn, mismatched, or missing entirely after a teardown. The set-of-8 count covers a complete axle in one order. Browse the full bolt kit selection for related driveline and brake hardware, or check our broader fasteners catalog for nuts, washers, and studs to round out the build.
These are 1/2-20 thread T-bolts, the size used on early-style Ford 9-inch housing ends. Each bolt is 1-1/8 inches long. Later-style housings use a different thread, so verify your housing ends are early-style 1/2-20 before ordering.
The ALL72043 kit ships as a set of 8. It includes 8 T-bolts, plus matching lock washers and nuts, which is enough hardware to mount brake backing plates on a complete Ford 9-inch rear end.
They fasten brake backing plates or brake brackets to the housing ends of a Ford 9-inch rear axle. The T-head design seats into the housing flange so the bolt won't spin while you torque the nut down.
The bolts, lock washers, and nuts are steel with a black oxide finish. Black oxide adds corrosion resistance and gives the hardware a clean, dark appearance against the axle housing.
No. This kit is cut for early-style Ford 9-inch housing ends with 1/2-20 thread. Late-style housings use different hardware, so confirm your housing ends before ordering this set.
