no leaf spring mounts, anybody else have some info...i know guys have gone this route....is it worth it???......the 12 bolt housing is a 1972chevy chevelle is stock and bare......
IMO no it's not worth it.
There is a reason a moser/etc 12 bolt costs what it does...there's a good amount of fabrication going into it. Not to mention it would be brand new, not 35 years old and have questionable parts inside
If you don't want to get a new one for $2,200-$2,500+, hang around the for sale section and pick up a used f-body 12bolt/9 inch. People sell them all the time when selling cars, and you can save money AND get a great rear that fits no questions asked.
Just my .02.
