Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!

Well, ****... So, I bought new seals yesterday, drivers side piece of cake.. Passenger side, piece of shit.. There is no way that end housing was put on correctly, Instead of having just 2 flats, 1 for the axle seal to go against and 1 for the bearing to go to, I have like 4 different flats of various sizes. Couldn't even get the seal in.. Then started looking closer, I am no expert, but I doubt these welds will last long..
Drivers side(from Moser), new seal installed
Passenger side, multiple flats(i know, hard to see) and welds look like they won't last long at all
Sorry to hear about that. Is that the shop that you took it to that did that ?
Yes. They must of just painted it when I picked it up. I did not notice all those bubbles.. Since it has sat awhile they've appeared. I don't even know if the housing is even any good anymore.. Put the car cover back on.. Don't see it moving anytime soon..
Who the heck did the work? That weld looks awful. It looks like they ran out of gas while welding it...then they tried to grind it back so it didn't look so bad. I wonder if they even bothered to put the rear end in a jig before they welded the end on. Shotty, shotty work.

I am highly doubting it was ever on a jig. I wish you could see where the seal goes, it is a complete mess.
I see the part number is on the end...is it the right number? What shop did this?
Aps performance in Muskegon. No, I doubt it is the right part. I can't even put the axle seal in on that side. That's when I noticed everything was effed up. I have no idea why there is a strange housing on the moser. I specifically asked for moser and even told them how much they were from moser. I am going out there tomorrow and if they don't square me away I will file a dispute with my credit card company and BBB.. I am now even wondering if that axle was bent. It is highly possible the shit job they did on that end housing caused the wobbling.
