so im installing my 9in and there are a couple stupid questions i have. My housing came with regular nuts, washers, and locking washers to bolt the center section to the housing. the builder also put some nylon locking washers on all the studs.. should i stick with mosers supplied stuff or go with the nylon ones? i dont really see why it would matter as long as the housing is torqued down enough but i just dont want to have any problems or void any warranties

also, where are you guys mounting the little y-block for the rear brake lines? right now mine is kinda just floating there with the lines back in it.. i mean zipties seem like the only option and that kinda sucks.

has anyone ever had problem with the moser gasket leaking? i installed and torqued the center section down with only the gasket and didnt even think about RTV till after so im kinda worried about that.

You can buy some new brake lines and bend them to fit the housing better. I used zip ties too.

As far as leaking, my center section doesn't leak a drop. My problem is the axle seals. Tried fixing it twice with no luck.

no problem out of the center but I have a leak from the axle seal.

What kind of setup are you guys running who are having axle seal problems?

Mine has the 7900fm housing ends with sealed bearings and stock lt1 brakes. If mine were to leak I would have to buy new axle bearings.

Before installing the axle seals, RTV' all around the inside where they are going to get tapped in. Once the seals are tapped in, use your finger to apply RTV around the edge of the seal. This should prevent any leaks. Bob

The Moser axel bearings have an O ring on them to seal the oil off. I was going to run the factory style seal inside the housing as well but it wouldnt work. The seal was riding on to big an area on the axel.

You can go to a junkyard and get the vent bolt off a 80s ford truck. It is long it goes through the brake line then gives you a place for the vent. You just have to drill the factory brake hose mounting hole out a little. Worked on mine pretty good.

i already installed my axles but is it ok to pull them back out or are the bearings/seals toast if they get pulled after being installed?

I have the same bearings. I am not looking forward to pulling the axles and replacing the bearings. I had to cut them off once before because moser sent them mounted on the axle shafts before I had a chance to put the backing plates on.
