Moser 9" Ok just a few more questions before I actually decide. Man, ya gotta love the search function here. So far from all i have read I will be going with a 9" due to strength with 33 spline axles. I plan on ditching the rear abs(or perhaps all the abs). The car is a daily driver and can see 1000-1500 miles a month. Im just looking at my options and cant decide which is best for my application. I want a spool but cant do that because i have to drive it daily. I want a posi but i hear they tend to break easily. I would like a locker but ive heard(mines an M6 btw) that the locker will engage and disengage between shifts, and has the possibility of putting me into the wall on a high rmp clutch dump when it engages. the only other option i have heard of is a powertrax or something of that nature. but i ask..
Is a locker that bad? or is this powertrax thing i have heard nothing about my solution.. please any and all feedback is greatly appriciated.

but im kinda crazy on the streets. I tend to take corners kinda fast and was told that with a spool that would pretty much leave me in a spin out. If i broke the spool it wouldnt be to expensive to replace tho. but i dont want to be replacing spools all the time. Maybe i can hop into the Texas section and find someone with both a locker and a spool and see If they will take me for a ride??

You most likely wont break a spool on a 9" unless you plan on running low 8s or faster..
If you ditch the rear ABS you ditch all the ABS, my ABS and TCS were gone long ago.
A locker wont be the best thing to nail around corners either, but I wouldnt fool with a regular posi. My car isnt a daily driver but I still put over 500 miles a month on it mostly driving back and forth to the tracks around here and its not bad wit the spool. I wouldnt worry about a locker putting you in a wall - you can 'feel' them unlock/lock sometimes on shifts but if the car is right its nothing drastic. For a daily driver 35 spline axles and a locker would be my choice for a high HP M6 car, I still may swap a locker in my car one of these days. Easy enought to do on a 9" but the 400.00 is the hard part
