Housing 22426 Less Stud 79-93 Mustang

The Housing 22426 Less Stud 79-93 Mustang from HOWE is a precision differential housing component engineered for Fox-body Mustang owners and serious street or strip builders. This reduced-stud configuration eliminates unnecessary fastener holes, streamlining the housing structure while maintaining critical load-bearing integrity. Whether you're upgrading from a factory 7.5-inch or 8.8-inch rear end, this housing addresses the specific mounting and alignment requirements unique to 1979–1993 Mustang platforms, making it essential for custom fabrication, drag racing, or high-performance street builds.

HOWE's housing design reflects decades of motorsports engineering—the "less stud" specification reduces weight while eliminating redundant mounting points that don't contribute to differential load paths. The compact footprint integrates seamlessly into tightly packaged chassis geometries common in modified Mustangs. This housing accepts HOWE's modular differential kits and pairs directly with factory or aftermarket axle shafts; the reduced-stud layout also simplifies custom suspension linkage routing, a critical advantage when fitting coilover systems or adjustable control arms in tight rear-end tunnels.

This housing is ideal for Fox-body Mustang owners pursuing independent rear suspension upgrades, drift competition builds, or maximum-traction drag racing platforms. Installation requires careful alignment to factory or custom mounts, ensuring optimal performance and reliability in demanding conditions. With its innovative design, this housing is a crucial upgrade for those looking to enhance their Mustang's performance.
