Just joined the site and i'm not sure if this question is one for the site, but i thought i'd try it anyway and see if someone has an idea that might help me. My 2006 mustang convertible gt has just made its way to the local dealer for repairs--the 3rd time in 3 years for the same problem. The pinion bearings and/or the carriage bearings have gone bad again. Any idea why this is happening? anyone have the same problem and gotten it fixed for sure? Thanks.

The Ford 8.8 read end is very reliable so that is not a normal problem to have. If I had to guess I would say that whoever is setting up the gears it not getting the pre-load on the bearings set right. This would cause them to fail prematurely. You may want to start your own thread for more input.
