Default My 9in. is installed!!

I just completed my 9in. swap yesterday. It is a moser 9in. housing with 31 spline axle's and a tractin lock with 3.50 gear's! The swap was real easy. The backing plate's from the 10 bolt swap over,no problem,the stock driveshaft work's,you just have to change out the u-joint for the correct yoke. I have a the spohn torque arm that mount's to the underside of the body and not the tranny, and that even bolted up with realitively no problem's. So far so good.

I have a 4 channel, it's literally just a plug...from what I understand (I could be wrong) all that means is how the car measures your speed. You shouldn't have any problems good luck!

I thought to vehicle speed sensor(VSS) was in the tranny. It is for sure in the T56, because I took it out on the rebuild. I hate snap rings.

I had another thread going where I asked if body modifications or alterations had to be done. They advised some slight tweeking of sheet metal to get the spohn torque arm (what I have) to fit with the 9 inch as it may hit the back seat support.
did you encounter this, or maybe, what did you have to do to get it to fit?

Maybe that's it, I really couldn't remember for sure. Maybe it's the abs sensor at all four wheels for the traction control??

I have to do some "modification" of the sheetmetal. I am running an Edlebrock torque arm and it hits right at the torque arm mount.
