The moser bolt in 12 bolt is a totally different aftermarket casting it was NEVER available in a car from any factory. There were no cars with 12 bolts close to a third gen so you would have to narrow the rear and have custom axels made.. Listen man moser and strange make a great product that bolts right into your car, takes all the guesswork out, and is damn near indestructable. All in all if you dont have the money to do it right, dont do it at all.

This man tells it like it is.
Modifying an axle housing can be (from my experience) a royal pain in the ass. Even properly welding axle tubes can be tricky with preheating etc...
If you don't go with a factory 3rd gen 10 bolt then your only other option is really an aftermarket or custom rear. You should start scanning the classifieds for a used one if you can't afford one new right now.
