Well it prob has about 200 passes on Drag radials and 26x10.5x16 ET streets, But I got 7 1/2 runs out of the Big tire!
Spool = race car, Yes, But my buddy has one in his car, he drives all the time on the street and it is running 10.0's! He said it isnt even notacable till you have to take a FAST SHARP turn.
We shall see.

dude, i was there! i was just telling my buddy who i work with about that today. i don't know if you noticed but i was the black WS6 in the left lane about 3 cars back from you.

i smoked my clutch last night. some guy in an import hit the wall right before my first run so i sat at the burnout box for an hour. finally got up the the tree, dumped my clutch at 3800 and spun it real bad. the stock clutch gave up after a year of abuse and my newly installed drag radials.

here's to a bad night at the NED


i saw you pushing it into the trailer and i would have helped but i was trying to figure out what was going on with mine. when the lights went out i called it a night.

I didnt see it, I was not paying much attention after i blew it.
The stock clutch is a junker, I blew mine in no time.
Then I put a good clutch and there goes the stock rear!!! Week links!

I was told by a few racers that the rears are good, Both moser and strage, But the internals they use are Not for high power cars, and M6's make it worse.
No more f-n around, Spool time!

The Moser that is.
Im going with a spool, and 33 splin gun drilled str ange now, Any input on this?
Thanks.
i could be way off base, but a gun drilled 33 spline axle with a spool just sounds like dissaster to me. i run a standard 35 spline in my spooled 9"

I run a spool in my car.. Its just hard on tires..

My 12 bolt is not the best, it was a over priced 10 bolts that i have had nothing but problems with.

I probally have over 3000$ in the rear alone, between intial price, gears, oil, spool and all the other crap..

Sounds like what mine is, when It blew, all i could think is, Well, their goes $40 worth of brand new gear oil! .
You run the spool, and it held up nice? Not bad to drive around with?
Which one do you run?

i dont think you can do 33spline gun drilled.....and if you can do that is about equal in strenght to probably 28spline axles

if you want gun drilled axles i would definately not go under 35

i have a spooled moser 9",33 spline axles. had it for 2.5 years and 25k street miles with no problems. fast tight turns are about the only issue,and dont drive on bfg dr's,they will get killed.

i cant complain about the rear,was cheap,and damn near bulletproof.
