They claim that they do. Go to www.highperformancepontiac.com and look under maximum effort for gen 10 bolt. I believe it's on the front page toward the bottom. There's a complete write up about strengthening the stock 10 bolt. Hope this helps.

BTW, I have a 10-bolt TA cover/stud girdle for sale. $100 plus shipping.

If the OP doesn't want the cover can you post pics or send them here: intercooler@verizon.net

They will only help out so much...which isn't much at all. I wouldn't rely on one to hold up your stock 10 bolt

Yeah I realize that..but as I said, don't bank on it to hold the rear end up and it will only help out a little

that is true.. only reason i got mine is because i got it for 75 bucks with the fluid and everything..

didnt have the money for a 9inch or 12 bolt at the time..

its held up 1.5 sixties pretty well.

Been doing some reading. Seems like putting a band-aid on a severed leg. Just going to throw that in a " 9 inch" account. Maybe I can get another year out of it and will have the funds then to pull the trigger.

i think with the stud kit on the bearings it could be beneficial but not prevent it from breaking.
