How come no one considers Currie rear ends: http://www.currieenterprises.com

They're not sponsors here?
I'm looking at a Strange 12-bolt or a 9", but just curious.

This looks interesting if you're looking for a 12-bolt without a spool:

Its funny I just called them yesterday about a 9". They quoted me 2700 bucks with drum brakes and a spool. A locker and better brakes would have been over 3 grand. I was like, thanks

Chris at Currie told me via phone that they dont have any ABS/TCS option for 4th gen f-body. However, their website indicated otherwise. I'm not going to put more time into figuring out if the website or saleman is correct.

Thanks, I get it. Too expensive, plus it sounds like they don't have their s*** together. I figured there had to be reasons, plus not even a sponsor. Forget it!

I bought a Moser BP9HP2 package form a vendor on here ($914),got a junkyard big bearing 3rd member(free),paid $58 for 3.55 gears from feabay and pickup new bearings and seals (Free) and bought a new True-trac from feabay ($361) Total $1333 I am working on a getting another big bearing 3rd member with 3.70 gears and dropping a full spool in it.

No point in paying $$$$ for a 9 inch or 12 bolt.
