Broke ANOTHER rear yesterday
 

was at our track here and cut a 1.51 60 ft and the rear broke....it was a 1/8th mile track so i ran a 7.52 which with my car would be around a 11.40 in the 1/4..... hopefully ordering the 12 bolt some time this week and should be able to launch the stall at 3800 instead of 2500 cause i was afraid i was gonna break something heres the video of my run b4 it broke

:cheers: let's start a club...

we should make a calendar of all our cars and all the proceeds can go to the broken rear foundation lol

go with a 9inch... bigger better :) i have had soem friends still break a 12 bolt are you an m6? and are you goin with a spool, locker a posi unit?

ford 9 inch is better imo my 7.5 10 bolt was down to 11.3 and still going strong before i replaced it. i believe little g has the gears and posi in his car now ???

little g has had 4.10s for a whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiile now

Yes, but the gears and posi that are in Little G's car were in Joe's '92 first. They took his car to low 11's, and they are still doing great in Craig's rear.

yeah my best time on teh 10 bolt was a 1.50 60 with a 11.3 qtr

thats about where im at right now.... but everyone tells me the ford 9" slows you down a lil.... and i am putting a spool in it

some people are running single digits with 12 bolts. you have an auto so the extra weight will just kill you

12 bolt ftw

if your goin with a spool you will be fine with a 12 bolt and save on weight

dana 60 and never worry about the rear again lol

lol at the dana........ i got a price on one with the spool of 1950 + shipping, im still waiting on a few other quotes to get back to me

i went through 4 10 bolts before switching to the 9" in my 93 Formula M6

i'm gonna go 12 bolt this time around in the 98. good luck with the new rear8)

Damn, sorry to hear about the rear. I broke yesterday too, only it was the trans.

still got the 4l60e? i dumped that and got a th-350 with a 3800 stall the car likes it alot...... gas mileage DONT! lol

cant use your stock driveshaft with that sucker either

Yep, I have a better one on the way though. I still drive my car home to IL for vacations so I need all the gas mileage I can get lol
