Stock rear end rebuild?
My question; Is it possable to build my stock 10 bolt to hold up to mid 10 second passes? If so, what would I need to do?
I looking for a solution to my piece of crap stock 10 bolt, but I dont really want to spend $2500 right now on a 9".
Thanks guys

Honestly, as a M6 guy, I wouldn't dump a dime into a 10 bolt. Save up the money for a 9". Like 608 said ^, do it right the first time. Virtually everybody on this board knows the 10 bolt is a POS, why try to polish a turd? We all know the A4 is more forgiving to it, but with the 10 second slip you're looking for, sticky tires and a bigger stall will still give the 10 bolt more than what it can handle.*
*Disclaimer - Yes, I know there are 10 bolts behind A4s running 10s. Proper setup, technique in launching and tire compound it can be done. I don't need somebody quoting my post saying Johnny Racer ran 10.xx on his 10 bolt. I'm "generally speaking".

Thanks, I figured as much. I have a m6 and the rear end is destroyed. I have used the 9" in the past with great success. I just wasn't sure if there was something out there for 10 bolts I didn't know about. Anything to save a dime, but I need durability too. Thanks

I once tried to budget together a 10 bolt build for my 13 second 87 camaro. Over the course of two years and having it taken apart 3 times to finally get it right, I could have bought a 9 inch.
Just speaking from experience.
