Back braceing a Moser 9 inch
Back braceing a Moser 9 inch I recently puchased a used Moser 9inch. Id decided to install a diffrent gear set. In the process i said what heck and sand blasted it . With the intent of POR 15 and installing drain plugs. What is everyone opion of installing a back brace on a used rear end. Is it a smart idea to install on a used rear end or not?
When building a housing the last weld should be the housing ends, if it were brought to Me to add a back brace it would also have the ends cut off and re installed. Could get pricey!

Kind of risky unless your very careful with your heat input while welding. Don't want to cause the axle tubes to pull, it doesn't take much heat to cause them to move. I wouldn't think its worth the risk or cost to add it.

Eric @ Midwest Chassis states that when you buy the 9" that he offers that if you have idea that you're going to need the backbrace, add it then or forever hold your peace, I assume this is for a reason. Like someone said earlier, the tubes will pull away with VERY LITTLE heat.

If you add a brace to the housing no matter what the weld process is you WILL warp the housing.
