what options do I have for striped out TA bolt holes?
I have the notorious moser 12 bolt with the striped out holes for the Torque arm. I'm ignorent when it comes to the rear end, so i'm asking, What options do I have? Does someone make a braket to make them 'through' holes? Can I buy a new center section, or case? Or is a new housing required?
The TA is holding up fine with its current Southern engineering, but that is minus the hard launches, and slicks due to come this spring at the track.

I did that, but I just don't feel real confident that its going to hold up well. I tapped it, used red lock tite, and lock washers. It is holding right now durring normal driving, but I don't have alot of confidence in it anymore.

So there isn't like a center section, or something I could replace it with? I've tried all the fixing things, not the heli coil yet, and It is holding up now, i just don't feel its very stout. I would rather just replace it with something i know is strong.

Oh, yea I guess that would pose a problem! lol I haven't really paid much attention to it's structural aspect. So basically do what i'm doing, or buy a 9". Hmm... Anyone know what a used 12 bolt and 9 inch go for?
