BTW, I love the way our cars squat and go except for Keith Brownlee who uses the rear bumper for a wheelie bar!

Where do you go when you get to the website? I went to products then to drivetrain and they only have parts for it, not the whole thing or a Housing. Could you tell me where to go :confused:

That's a Moser 12 bolt with 4.10 gears with an Eaton posi and 33 spline axles. I know the axles have like a 10 year unlimited warranty on them, they essentially dare you to break them.

Costs about $2200 fully setup for the ABS brakes and everything. It's a completely drop in replacement and you won't break it. I'm sure you can get any gear ratio you want too, my friend just chose 4.10 for his car.

I'd go this route over a Ford 9" any day if just for the ease of use.
hmmm... that is most interesting...

you are right... my friend keeps blowing a grand a pop on parts alone. most shops are doing the labour for another $400.00 or so... it won't take long to break even.

I doubt he will want 4.10:1 gears tho...
