Thumbs up Finished installing the moser 9" last night

I'm not sure if this is in the right section, if it needs to be moved, please do so.

I finished installing the 9" last night that I ordered from TSP, (full spool, aluminum center section, 35 spline axles, and 4.11's), I also put my new BFG Gforce drag radials on at the same time (295/35/18), and also installed the SJM manufacturing ABS delete kit. Before this I had 305/35/18 Nitto drag radials, and a built 10 bolt with 4.10's. With the nittos and 10 bolt, the car would get absolutely no traction whatsoever, and the car had a lot of vibration, due to the 10 bolt i think. Now it feels like a whole different car, the car doesn't break traction at all anymore, I am very pleased with this rear end, and these tires are significantly better than the nittos, I wish I would have got the moser the first time the 10 bolt grenaded instead of waiting till the 4th time, and I went through three sets of nittos before switching to the BFG's. And the sjm abs delete kit is great as well, the brake feel didn't change at all, they still work perfect.

The one thing that is a little bit of a pain in the *** but I'll get used to it is parking the car, due to the full spool. I'm extremely satisfied with all of these products.

Just thought I'd share. Thanks for reading.

The spool is awesome, just gets a little annoying when it comes to parking the car, but i'm getting used to it.

I think the wider tires are help in traction.

You will get used to parking the car with a spool. Making U turns take up more room that with a spool, but I don't think it is too bad. Bob
