Ahh ok, gotcha. So the difference in weight should be minimal then between this 9" and a moser 9" (assuming the same setup).

 

yeah the difference is that this rear is assembled correctly its all moser components. not sure if he fabbed the tq arm mount or bought it, ill have to ask him.

 

No the TQ arm mount comes from moser.

I have the exact same rear, 31 spline,tru-trac,4.11's. I painted it and put it in myself. And assembled it, minus center, scott built it.

DLS is great to deal with, fast response and quick to answer any questions. I called him all hours of the day.

I ran for the first time tonight on it and I thought it would of been a little slower then the 10 bolt. WRONG, it ran 11.9 on the first pass. best was 12.19.
On the last pass I sprayed 100 shot and got a 11.45 @ 122.21 and spun'm hard off the line. 1.62 60'.
The 9" did'nt even blink. I would recomend DLS to everyone. Thanks.

 

I just about lost all of my profit margin in telephone calls with J.
Just F...ing with ya, nice time J, I myelf made it out to Milan dragway and got my ride to 60' a little better, 1.41, to the tune of 9.55 @ 143mph.

 

get around to putting that sucker in? PM me if u need any help, im local

 

Hourang and I just finished his install this afternoon, He is very pleased with the results. But I'll let him tell the story.

 

yeah scott did a great job with the install, even put up with my slow azz, lol. my back is still killing me I cannot thank scott enough for the work he has done, he also helped me weld my nitrous bottle brackets which he didnt have to, thanks man. the rear end is amazing, it looks sooo badazz from behind the car, i have pics ill be uploading later. the rear is as quiet as a mouse and feels a lot smoother and tighter. we took pics and notes of the whole install process and will be putting together a how-to. When im finished with that i will post on here a link to the install. i feel soo much better now beating the crap out of my car,

 

Congrats on getting the new rear installed! Hopefully you can get the write up done soon; I'm going to be putting mine in soon and it would be nice to have some guidance since I've never done it before.

 

no problem man, probably tomorrow ill have them up. i cant find my cable to download the pictures off my digicam so i have to borrow a card reader to upload the pics.

 

The moser housings are steel not cast correct?

Would make welding on the TQ arm mount alot easier and stronger.

 

heres a couple pics of it installed:

 

Very nice, I can't wait to get mine assembled and put in.

 

hourang..

Did you guys have to mount/weld the sway bar brackets on when you installed it? \

Looks great BTW!

 

Sweet! I'm surprised more folks don't opt for an alum. center section though. Nice to know that you don't have to immediately buy a driveshaft. I'm kinda surprised the stock length shaft will work though.

 

im not, im pretty sure it was designed so ppl can use the stock driveshaft...

wouldn't launch to hard without a driveshaft loop tho hehe

btw beuitiful

 

I'm not quite sure but the OEM driveshaft is either 1/2 or 1" too long. The OEM driveshaft under the right conditions will be forced into the tailshaft of the transmission, nuking the tranny.

 

yes scott welded the sway bar brackets when we installed it. im pretty sure you could get away with using an exhaust clamp kinda like the factory does, scott said some people have done that.

i have a bmr driveshaft loop but couldnt install it for some reason cuz the stock torque arm is in the way, you can see half of the bmr ds loop, the loop part isnt hooked up. i guess ill have to get an aftermarket torque arm. anyone have a used adjustable one cheap? lol. i aint launching on slicks with a stock ds and no loop, im still on street tires, i have to get the budget together to get, slicks, rims, driveshaft, tq arm, etc, thats like a couple grand right there :/ ill probably wait till next year for that maybe just try this on street tires on the track who knows. ill have to look at the driveshaft to see if it is too long, i doubt it is, or scott wouldnt let me do this...

 

ok more info on the stock driveshaft, the yoke that scott uses is shorter to keep the driveshaft at the stock location

 

The more you guys talk/post about it, the more I like driveline solutions.

 

Anyone that thinks a stock driveshaft is going to hold up to 4-5,000 rpm clutch dumps is nothing but naive. Anyone selling 9" rears and telling their customers that an OEM driveshaft is OK for a M6 is borderline criminal. Have any of you guys ever seen what damage a wrung off driveshaft can do? It can virtually destroy a car.
