BTW, funny about the IQ part...

I didn't mean to get a fude started I just don't want him to make the same mistake I did and think that 10 bolt is something it's not. It WILL break and I don't want him to have his car sitting more than it's running like I did.

You're getting all huffy-puffy when I agreed with your opinion that a 12-bolt is needed, but I believe 10-bolts can be built right...not to last forever, but plenty long enough. Mine's going on 2 years with just a girdle. You apparently don't think so. You still haven't answered my question on mic'ing the solid spacer. I'm guessing you didn't, which is likely why it blew up on you.BTW, it's FEUD, not "FUDE", Einstein...

using an insult has absolutely no correllation to IQ whatsoever.

feud.
btw........i do think a 12 bolt is necessary if you are making good power...........however i would buy the heads/cam first, then get a rear afterwards.........atleast you can have fun with the heads/cam until you break the stock rear.

Lemme guess...you guys have never made a typo? It's not a spelling mistake....but live it flamers. I did delete my posts about rearend stability and the responses I never should have made.
BTW....it was immature of me to respond the way I did even though you insulted me via name calling. I in fact did stoop to the same level of name calling by even responding to your post.

well, what are these people doing to their 10-bolts to run 10's on them??? I've got a rear end girdle/support cover and will be installing a solid pinion spacer next weekend with a fresh set of 4.10s. Here's the claim on the spacer from Thunder Racing:
"Ratech also manufacturs solid pinion bearing spacers, or "crush collars." These are excellent for cars that "shock" their rear ends extremely hard during launching, which is common with manual transmissions. The solid pinion spacer will allow your rear end setup to remain constant after repeated hard launches."
With the structural integrity of the housing increased, and therefore reducing flex, and the crush sleeve replaced by a solid spacer, that the only base not covered in a strong 10-bolt would be the axles...am I wrong? Any fast f-bodies out there with both mods and experiences on this type of setup?
If there isn't, there will be one soon...

It took us 6 hours....but 3.5 of that was installing the u-joint. Installation is simple too....not much to it at all. Checkout Tbyrne too.
