I'm not sure were you get that our fabricated nine inch will not hold abuse? We have hundreds of our rearends out there with many different hp ratings and combos with out issue.

Our two shop cars alone are both daily driven style cars, one being a T56.

Are you kidding? The MWC rear is just as strong, if not stronger than any other 9". It's all about what you put in it. Also, where are you guys hearing that you should get a Moser 9" over an MWC? ...that's just retarded.

****... didn't see the post by Midwest. But it's worth saying twice.

fwiw I have well over 100 passes on my MWC 9" with 6200rpm dumps on DR's and slicks and it's still good as new. Also have about a year of street fun on it.

Remember when price shopping our rear end package comes with a chromemoly double adjustable torque arm and cross member of your choice to fit your needs. If you compare it to other rear ends and then add on the price of having to go buy yet another companies torque arm and cross member you will realize you are coming out ahead buying one of our package deals. All components are manufactured in the same shop and fit with out issue.

i did plenty of research before i purchased a rear and the Midwest chassis 9" came out on top of every category i could think of.Excellent quality,better parts that you wont get anywhere else like a chromoly short torque arm that bolts to a crossmember with a built in DS saftey loop,all included in the package.And the best part is customer service,i have called them past hours before and someone answered the phone.They are just a straight up business doing quality work that has nothing to hide.you would be dumb to buy the moser stuff over the MWC stuff.The only way i can see going with the moser is if you already have all your suspension stuff done like a torque arm and safety loop and you need only a rear.And even then i would sell all my suspension stuff and get the MWC.Oh and by the way my 9" with the aluminum center section is about the same weight as my 10 bolt.i havent weighed the two side by side yet,but i will when i get to put it in

Moser also makes a fabricated rear with a chromoly torque arm and transmission crossmember. My '99 Z28 cut a 1.29 60ft right out of the trailer on M/T drag radials with the Moser M9.

These rears are shipped out just two days after the order is received. Bob

Thanks for the kind words from everyone, keep in mind we are not shelf selling we are a fabrication shop. You are not forced to buy only what someone offers from a catalog. We can do custom work to suit your needs and have done so in the past to make sure the customer is happy.

There isn't a combination of parts we shouldn't be able to put together for your rear end. You can not get that from a shelf bought rear end order manufactured by other companies, you are forced to buy only what they offer.

Other rear ends might get to you a little faster but that is just a sign of what rear end is hot right now after proving itself over and over again. It also makes you realize our builds take a little longer because there is so many options we offer that they just can't be sitting on a shelf hoping someone buys them.

Keep in mind that we can also get you other rear ends that are not our fabricated nine inch rear end and will do our best to match anyones prices if not beat them. You will get the same help we give our fabricated rear end customers. For those some what local to our area we have track rentals so you can even test our product with us there for questions. We had one a year for the past 16 some years and now are doing two a year.

It is called supply and demand. No demand makes for quick shipping.

The M9 may be a nice rear (I really don't even know) but the price of it with a TA, crossmember, and DSS loop isn't comparable to the MWC 9"

And I'm not trying to bash on Bob either, he and Eric both are great guys with excellent customer service. But in this case, the MWC 9" comes out on top any way you look at it.

I went with a locker. It took a little getting used to, but I don't even notice it much anymore.
