Sounds like a pretty good deal you got going there. Post pics when the parts show and give us a rear build

Nice, for that price on the center you could order a housing and axle package for $1100 and have a complete 9" for like $1800.

I have already built my own housing from scratch and after all parts and having the housing narrowed and jig welded I will have right at 1600 in it. I still need to order axles with studs and the torque arm bracket then I can finish fabricating. Ill do a build thread when its all said and done.

Did you get the Motives from QP?

Yeah Ive bought everything except my housing ends through QP so far. Ill takes some pics but unless I have a bad terrible noise I most likely wont notice it. Ive got Long Tubes with a Y pipe and a single 3" Bullet on my car. It will talk to you. LOL.

I'm looking forward to building my first 9". I have always hated having to press the pinion bearing on and off to get the pinion shim set.

I am gonna run the Moser torque arm bracket I think. I like the tubular design. And the Yukon nodular case is already clearanced for it.

Rear is built and in the car.
I ordered it with 5/8 race wheel studs and the ones with the large washer type locking system absolutely do not fit normal wheels with conical seats so I had to get the wheels machined. I tried several places and no one would do it for me so I came up with my own pilot system and barrowed a valve spring seat cutting tool and machined them myself.

Now all I have left is drill out the brake rotors, assemble the brakes, slide the drive shaft in and put the tq arm in.

I am probably gonna ride down to BMR in a hour or two and pick up a tq arm. Might as well put an adjustable one in it while I am right there.

Anyhow thanks for asking Its coming along great.
