Just make sure you have a shop or person that knows how to set up rear gears, the right way! Very important and I'm sure you already know this!

Oh yeah,i know this LOL!My GT has seen 3.73's to 4.10's,and maybe the 4.30's next LOL!I have heard that the 4.30's need an extra special care for install.

Rear is a modified 8.8 that originally came with my Mach 1.

Welded axle tubes, Moser C-clip eliminators that I modified with arp bolts thru aluminum the blocks, CHE axle brace. Moser 4.30 lightened and mikronited gears, Moser 31 spline axles & spool. Arp carrier studs and Moser bearings. Pro launch II kit/upper adjustable control arms with stabilizer cross bar, Maximum Motorsports extreme duty lower control arms with adjustable spring perches, retaining the factory sway bar. Carbon fiber driveshaft.

Nice score gettin that package with the car. I have Strange C-clip elims, the right 1 is leakin a bit :( What did you do 2 "modify" ur Mosers & why? What kind of weld is that on the axle tubes?

The diff is looking a little bullit proof.
The CHE axle brace looks pretty solid!:tup

The rear was a factory 8.8 from my Mach 1 that we modified. I should have worded that different.

After cutting the ends of housing off, we used an axle seal pressed into the end with RTV. This is a good mod to stop leaking. The Moser C-clip eliminater come with studs threaded into the aluminum block ends. Not very strong when taking turns with a spool. I drilled out the 4 aluminum threads on each aluminum block and turned them into thru holes. Then used ARP high tensile bolt & nut to secure them to factory end plate. Which had to be modified for the Moser aluminum blocks to fit.

The weld is from a mig welder, not very pretty but has been holding up. The CHE axle brace is probably all I needed.

Thanks! I already tested it out back in 07 when running in the high tens and driving on the street. I'll soon see how it handles my new motor this year.

I like ur idea of using the seal, when I took mine apart 2 fix the leak I saw that the housing ends need a little attention, gaskets & seals are on order. thanx
Properly welding the housings can be a challenge. :wink:
