What rear end to buy?

[1BADAIR]

Will do.. What rear are you running?

I have a moser 12 bolt but have discussed a trade/sale with scott about moving to a 9 inch.

Hey Larry (1BADAIR), how is your rear set up right now? Maybe you might want to sell it outright?

Between a 9", a S60 and a 12 bolt....a 12 bolt would be the last one I would choose....stick or auto.

[LS1Formulation]

True, but there are guys in the 10's on stock 10 bolts with automatics. Not saying they'll last long, but it does happen. If I had an auto and only planned on 10's, I'd go with a 12 bolt for ease of use and efficiency.

3 Channel 33 spline 4.11 spool, solid spacer(no crush sleeve)

I've been working with D&R driveline in grandville. Looks like I can pick up a moser rear with 3 channel abs and a tru trac posi unit for under $2,200. This is with a used iron center section and my choice of gears. I'm still debating on a nodular , or aluminum center section.

I'm going to look at that Midwest unit now too. By the time you add lower control arm brackets, a drain plug, torque arm I'm sure I'll spend $2,700 anyway.

I just want to spend the money locally if I can.

go big or go home.. MOSER M9.... Just gotta get a few things finished up and ill be getting mine!! it weights about the weight as the 10 bolt compared to the 10 or 12 bolts which are heavier.... buts its 4000 for it...

[DETROITMUSCLE]

I'm taking notes over hear as I want the exact same thing as Larry lol and trust me when I say this, I wanna buy it once and be done with it.

with the m9 and the midwest the car can't be very low. the TA bracket hits

[LS1Formulation]

I already have a Chris Alston chassisworks tunnel mount torque arm, so no rearend/torque arm combinations for me.

[c0ncEpT]

I would go with either a Moser 12 bolt or a Midwest Fab9 if I were you Larry. Both seem to be good choices

[OIF1VET]

I'm actually leaning towards a 9".. Not the midwest though..

bought my 9 inch right from moser and had a guy in Gr put the center section together... let me know if u want any info from him.. great guy and knows what he is doing

Does he own a shop, or does he do it out of his garage?

I was also curious if you had any issues with the torque arm hitting the floor pans? I've heard that one issue with the moser 9inch is the torque arm bracket location causes it to rub on the floor pan.

most of the current TA's have two mount locations. most aftermarket axles require you to use the inner holes(some need to be trimmed to fit)
