It took 3 weeks for for Moser to build my 12 Bolt but once it was done, it was shipped on a Friday and I got it on a Tuesday. So I would say 5 days if you count the weekend.

I live in South Florida, and the rear was shipped from Portland, Indiana via Old Dominion Freight. Be warned though the rear end showed up on a pallet in a box the size of a coffin. Total weight with the pallet was 328 lbs. The truck that showed up was an 18 wheeler with no lift gate. The driver and I lugged the sucker off the back of the truck and chucked it in my garage.

I actually just installed the rear today. Its friggin awesome! I have 4.30 gears and its totally quiet! the rear doesn't make a peep. Its like the when the car was totally stock. I know over time it will start to whine, but right now I'm really enjoying the 4.30's and with no whine at all!

Good Luck.

I ordered my 12 bolt from Quick Time Performance on a Monday. Barry had the order into Moser on Tuesday. It was at the truck yard in town that Friday and delivered the following Monday (showed up too late on Friday to get delivered).

It does come in a coffin. We just took it out of the box and off the pallet, it was much easier that way.

You are going to want to paint it because it'll rust up rather quickly. I had mine powder coated gloss black and it looks sweet!

On the highway I cannot tell any difference between 4.10's and 4.30's. I was cruising last night in 6th gear doing 90mph turning 2200 rpms!

With my 4.10's I was turning like 2100 rpms. Big wow hehe.

But the best feeling is how tight the rear end is. I was running a 10 bolt that I rebuilt with ratech racing parts, motive 4.10s and a T/A girdle. Yesterday when I opened the cover on my 10 bolt I found I had a tooth missing on the gear. That was with only 20 passes on the built up 10 bolt and I never dropped it off the line more than 3k. The 12 bolt feels solid as hell. and it quiet!

Blew my stock rearend weekend before last. Ordered my Moser from THUNDER RACING on Tuesday, arrived at mechanic's today. It'll be installed tomorrow. I also got the 4.30's, but I went with the spool. Am really tired of things braking this year. Also got ET Drags 26x10x15. Now for the 100 shot out of hole, 5500 rmp drop <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

By the way, is there a true 'break' in period? If so how many miles? I put a set of 3.73's in (lasted 500-600 1/4 trips) no brake in (well maybe 30-40 miles).

thanks

David

Read the card that comes with the rear end and you're golden. It's a 3 minute in forward, 3 in reverse on the stands. Drive 20 minutes, sit it for an hour. The more you repeat this the better. I did mine twice. It was a bit quiet at first. After a few 5000 dumps at the track she howls on occasion, but it's tolerable. If you crack the windows you can't even hear it.
