Default S60 or Midwest 9" ?

Well, college is finally paying off. Getting paid now so it's time to finally throw my 10 bolt carnage pile over the nearest hillside and get a rear that I don't have to worry about.

Looking for bulletproof (M6) but easy on the street.

Would have an S60 already but the Midwest unit looks awesome.

Will be driving lots of highway. 4.10s at the lowest (gears need to be quiet)
Wanna be able to strap on something sticky at the track.
Don't have a torque arm, tunnel cross member, or loop yet.
Want to go coil overs in the future.

Would rank priorities as:
Strength
Value
Efficiency
Weight

355 LT1--Street Twin--M6--10bolt--315 BFG KD's
HP number is unknown but I can pull even with my buddies 6.0 T/A from a 70mph roll up to 140

You can not go wrong with either one to be honest. Clearly we are going to put the MWC package first on the list but we put the S-60 as a good choice as well. I will PM you a break down that you can go over and see what we have to offer.

Also remember that MWC 9" package comes with a torque arm and crossmember mount with the housing. I can't wait for mine...

Yea the Fab 9" weights less than a Moser 9".. There are A LOT of options you can choose from as they are built to order. I'd suggest just PM'ing Midwest Chassis and have them send the price list they have and go from there. The price can't be beat for the quality of the products and worksmanship.

Don't forget about the Moser fabricated 9 inch, which basically weights the same as the 10 bolt. You won't be waiting a season for it to show up, as it ships out just two days after the order is received. Here is a link to it. http://shop.brutespeed.com/Moser-M9-...y-Complete.htm Bob

That has got many people into a rear end that could of never purchased a rear end before also. We are happy to do this for everyone and it works out since we are a small personal shop that are on the same playing field as our customers. We understand what it takes to do this stuff because we are still out doing this stuff ourselves.

If you want to do a layaway plan for the Moser rear, I can hold your money until you have enough for the rear. Bob
