Default not going to be able to sleep tonight

Okay, so my rear end/suspension is sitting at the dock in Orange waiting for me to pick it up at 730 tomorrow morning lol but i have a few questions

in a total error, i havent really read much about swapping the rear ends over. I know i have to swap the brake backing plates, which are what hld the ebrake shoes and whatnot right? Speaking of that if im getting rid of me ebrake (dont ask, i know its not the safest thing in the world, but it doesnt work AT ALL anyway) will i have to do anything special or just not hook everything up?

what else has to be swapped over and whats the order. I know there are bearings that need to be pressed on. i dont need to get reluctor rings off of my old axles (went with no abs.tcs option) umm i think thats about it.

If anyone has any words of advice please post them now as my 10 bolt is already out and went through some serious carnage at the end of the shaft so im sitting here waiting for this bitch to come in.


AAHH! sorry

ill post pictures of everything tomorrow

Only problem I had was with the e brake cable bracket. Wasn't really a place to mount them. I found a place tho.

Really it's all bolt in. I had no problems. It was my first time installing a rear end. 9" spool with adjustable torque arm and pst drive shaft.

when you order a fabricated 9 inch package from us it comes complete with the drain plug, e-brake cable brackets, brake hose mounts, sway bar brackets, 4 hole relocator style lca brackets, brake line clips, and chassis brake hose mount adapter. all these components are standard features and are included at no extra cost. the other manufacturers don't even offer some of those things, let alone charge you for the others as options. all these little things add up and make it the most true bolt-in f-body rearend you can buy.

**** man i have no idea. 2+ months?


finally got everything in the car lat night minus the coil overs. I had to cut my TSP duals off, i couldnt get the torque arm to not rest on the pipes right around the X. All ill have to do is have the X moved farther forward in the car and everything will clear just fine.

Pictures really dont do these thigns justice. Everything about this rear end is a work of art
