New Moser M9 rear with Moser torque arm!

The 12 bolt does weigh more than your old 10 bolt, but I am really surprised you can feel the difference. I am impressed, you must have a lot of road racing experience.
I recommend that you tack-weld the torque arm bolts to their nuts to keep them from loosening up, since even loctite is not keeping them tight for you.
Do indeed get the pinion angle correctly adjusted, this can make a huge difference in how well your car hooks up coming out of the corners. You will probably notice an even better driving feel with the torque arm properly adjusted.
As far as the M9 goes, this is a complete new rear-end assembly that just became available from Moser. This rear requires the use of Moser's own torque arm as well. I have this new rear in my own Camaro, shown here.

This new rear is 42lb's lighter than a standard Moser 9 inch F body rear. This new rear is now also going to be available made completely out of chromemoly, making it much lighter! Would this be as light, or lighter than your stock 10 bolt? I don't know yet, but weights should be available soon. Bob

A new option from Moser is having the anti roll bar mounting brackets already welded to the rear, for the use of the BMR X-treme anti roll bar. The price for the welded brackets is $50.00. This will give you the option of having the M9 rear powder coated from Moser with the brackets already welded. Bob

Anytime you have a rear with larger diameter housing tubes, with spring perches sitting on top of the housing, you have the potential for the rear to sit up slightly higher. Typically with the 12 bolt this is hardly noticeable.

Also I dont have too much road racing expoerience, Ive lonly been to 2, all day long track meets. but maybe Im sensitive to change in the car, even though I felt no difference when I ported my own Throttlebody.

well Bob, if it indeed is lighter or as light as the 10 bolt. I would buy it and sell my 12 bolt.

Thats funny you caught my question before I edited it. Thanks a bunch!

OK I weighed a stock 10 bolt w/3.42s and torsen diff without brakes, brake brackets, lube and no Tq arm. It weighed 138.6 pounds. I have a Spohn cro mo tq arm and I weighed it with bolts and crossmember. It weighed 30.8 pounds. I cant find a stock tq arm anywhere (I know I have a couple of them) but I'm thinking when I weighed the first stocker I took off it was around 19 pounds.
This is most peoples starting point so lets just start here and start comparing off actual weights of actual production parts that you or I can put on a scale and make a sound decision from.
Good luck, Tom

"We were curious about the additional weight of a Moser compared to stock and it was 47 lbs. heavier."
This was from my '99 Camaro from about five years ago. It was a Moser 12 bolt with the Performance cover, 33 spline gears and an Eaton center and it had ABS. Adding 47 pounds to your 10 bolts weight would put my old 12 bolt at 185.6 lbs. We can use this weight to compare it to other 12 bolts to get an average on the 12 bolts. Bob

This 42 lb. less is total B.S. Now lets try to find where that 42 pounds less is. The axles are the same. The center section, or third member, is the same. The bearings are the same. And for the rear end housing, the housing ends are the same. The axle tubes are the same. So, the only difference is the torque arm, and the center of the housing. The torque arm has as much tubing and rod ends as a spohn torque arm. So no real weight savings on the torque arm. So the only place you will save weight is the torque arm mount and the center area of the rear end housing. Now lets look at the moser M9 housing. It is made out 1/8' thick steel with a 3/8' thick face plate welded to it. This is no major weight savings. So at best its 5 or so pounds lighter due to the lighter style of torque arm mounting to the housing.
