Well it seems like you have no freaking idea what you are doing, stop, just stop please, for the love of cars stop trying to help people. For humanity's sake please never reproduce... You are probably the guy behind the counter at the parts store who has no clue what he is doing.(ya know, the guy we give a facepalm to when we ask for something simple and he/she looks bewildered)

Please just

Well it somehow u agreed with my cryogenic idea. But u continue to keep Cry-oing like a little girly. We can all read hear how the truth hurts and u keep squealing like a drug dealer thats losing customers. For humanity's sake i hope they lock u up for good (or at least give u the boot off the forum). Your so full of false accusations and lies u belong back in the big house where u came from. U sound like the guy that got caught steeling car stereos for a hit of crack. Yea your wonder drug that keeps u believing all your own BS.

Please turn yourself into rehab and fix your geto brain.

Decide top put in a Strange 12 bolt and be done. Axle is on order. Thanks for all the input though guys, appreciated very much. Thanks again.

Only issue I've ran into with my 12-bolt are spider gears. In the 14 years I've had it I had to get the spider gears replaced in the carrier twice. I was running drag radials the first time and ET Streets the second time. I'm now running QTP's with a little bit more power and haven't had any issues. Just FYI.

Upgrading to aftermarket is a good choice!

nitrous2fast mentioned a solid pinion spacer, as you mentioned you have a M6 car I am going to second that, I highly recommend it. I had some noise concerns with my 12 bolt and ordered one, when it was installed the person goes yeah you literally crushed the crush sleeve!

if its the style of 12 bolt with four bolts to hold on the torque arm to the center section, tack weld the bolt heads so they can't loosen up and fall out.

Cryo isn't a new thing or "your" idea.... I didn't state that you had a good idea and a genius for coming up with it. Pull your head out o your butt, it's causing you to become butt-hurt all the time and most everything coming out of your mouth to stink.

I've had this happen. I loctited them and tightened the **** out of them and they havent come loose since. That was several years ago. I still periodically check tho. Just to make sure

Just to be curious, what made you choose a 12bolt over a 9 inch?

Many choose 12 bolt because of the lesser drivetrain loss, and some just like to keep it GM.

Ohh man, he got you good you chicken ******! Cardo0 is our Farva.....

Cardo0, BTW, the Gen 3 rear axle (of which the 9 bolt you referenced) is 2" narrower than the gen 4 and would require large spacers (which are not good for racing, and not allowed at some tracks) or new wheels.

Getting parts for the 9 bolt is a crapshoot. It's pointless to even suggest unless you like used gearsets and worn posi clutches.

I went with the 9" because I remember reading about high powered stick cars beating up 12 bolt's pinion gear after a few hard launches, the S60 is a boat anchor, and the ability to swap assembled third members is really cool. I don't have to rip the whole damn rear out to work on it which is nice. On the other hand, Moser quality control is crap. Give your money to someone else.
