It'll come any way you want it built and will come with your choice of trq. arm and the crossmember can be setup for True Duals or a Catback style Exhaust.

Not to mention mine was 20 lbs lighter than my stock 10 bolt with all of my options. I had the larger 35 spline axles (stock length rearend/axles) and a "Heavy" Detroit Locker differential.
How did your fab9 with a locker weight 20 less then a 10bolt? thats impressiver but I didnt think it was possible. With a spool, and gundrilled/starflange axles(-7) you can get it slightly lighter then a 10bolt (150)

Thats a lil impressive that you got that part already, especially since its powdercoated. Mine took 3 months for the housing package & center section, & waited another 2-3 weeks for the axles. Still waiting on axles & center section still? Youre gonna have fun trying to get that center section lined up on the housing studs with it installed in the car. I had to tweak just about every one of those studs. Its much easier with the axle on the ground faced up. I think weather will finally cooperate here & I can drive mine to the shop & get mine installed this weekend.

Not totally true yours took so long because of a back ordered part from another manufacture and we gave options for you to get something different or wait for what you wanted and you chose to wait.

Yes it is true to set these things up while out side the car that is for sure but can be done if you take your time. We have swapped out centers here in house with the rear ends in the car with out any issue.
