Hey Jason
The rims showed up today and look great!!!!
Got your message and will call you Monday.
I can not thank you guys enough for all the help getting the rear end and rims set up.
It is just like Christmas and I am looking forward to seeing the rear end when it gets here.
Thanks again
Brad

Damn! those look great! What's the backspacing on the rears? How much did you have the rear end narrowed?

The axles are shortened 3" each side and the backspacing is 5".
Eric knows his stuff when it comes to this.
Looking at your sig I see you went with the watts link, I also did the same.
How do you like it?

It's an awesome piece! and was easy to install. I mostly got it to run true duals. I only have 100 miles on my rear end so I can't tell you if there are any performance advantages.

Got mine installed over the weekend and I'm loving it. Still breaking it in but the wavetrac is a great choice. Feels like stock around corners and should be able to handle anything I'll throw at it. I can't hear any gear noise either. Great piece, just can't wait to be able to get on it lol

Glad you are happy, keep doing the break in procedure properly as it is a very important step that many try and rush if not do at all. Any questions please let me know.

Is anti roll bar a direct bolt in, in one of the pictures -white camaro- it looks like there is some welding that is done where the stock sway bar is mounting?

They have 2 styles, a weld in style, and a bolt on style. The weld in version is a little stronger from the mounting style.

Ordered my MWC 9" 7/25/11. I've been so stoked I've called or texted all my boys, you would think the wife just gave birth. Just wanted to say thanks to MWC for the advice, great customer service and great price. Look forward to beating the crap out this thing!
