I had terrible wheel hop with my Moser 9" and MT DR's. I welded in UMI relocation brackets and used the lowest bolt hole. No more, I mean ZERO, wheel hop.

You must have the 35 spline axles, I only went with the 31 spline axles. I'm putting out about 430 rwhp. Most of the time the car drives like a posi, but sometimes it clunks on tight turns. All I can say is for the peace of mind it gives, I can live with a little noise.
