Default 7.5 10 Bolt Build -up

Need Help! Planning on installing a Strange steel driveshaft, HAL QA1 Front coil over shocks & 275 LB Drag springs, Bogart P1 15X10 Wheels w/ Mickey Thompson ET Street Drag Radials to cure my traction dilema. NOW -I have already installed a bearing Cap stud kit & T/A Performance Rear axle girdle for added insurance-Any other suggestions on strengthening this rear-Yes I know the basic design makes it inherently weak -but I'm doing this on a specific budget. 2) Should I do the steel Moser Axles too? THANK YOU!

If you are running sticky tires behind an M6 I don't think the steel DS will be needed. The rear will give up first. If you are intent on doing this you should also weld the axle tubes.

well i have a 10 bolt with arp studs, a ta girdle an auburn posi and richmond 4.10's my car dynoed just over 400 rwhp and i broke 6 teeth off my gears the other day on cold ground with fairly cold nittos. if you're an m6 it wont last. this rear ran 9's in an auto car just fine over the summer but the m6 is too harsh on em.
