A new 12 bolt is not even close to 4500 dollars..

several, including a guy on thirdgen.org who has been building rear ends for three decades.
if you know a way to pull up a photo or exploded diagram view of said rear posi unit, please share. I'd love to know what my fate may be. this bolt may have broken off a long time ago or just recently. last time I had the cover off and changed rear fluid was about 1.5 years ago.
as per prices on the 12 bolt, that is kinda what I have been coming up with when doing pretend orders on moser, strange, and currie websites. (that price includes the $600 driveshaft i will NEED to match the rear, from dennys driveshafts) I also looked on hawks, and may give JS josh a call. I do want a 12 bolt and not a 9".
I would really like to keep my current rear brake package becasue it works well, and I already own it so why buy another.
it is the exact kit at this link:

BUT WITH THESE BACKING PLATES:
http://flynbye.com/catalog/i182.html
(those backing plates were needed because i went from drum to disc)
from researching moser, currie, strange's websites, they obviously wouldn't use those backing plates, but how would I go about ordering/researching how to make this brake package work.
the reason I ask is when I go to Moser's site,
http://www.moserengineering.com/12-b...d-package.item
click "rear end packages" in the store, "12 bolt built to order", .. in brake packages, would i just click "using stock brakes" ? and then use my backing plates? will this work with their axle flanges and bolt-in axles (non C-clip) ? I have emailed them twice but no response so I may have to call. in reality, this is the only thing holding me up from piecing together an order.... (and finances). I would really hate to not reuse my perfectly fine working brake package. see below and/or website
