Check your website, Jason! It's missing!
http://www.unbalancedengineering.com

I'm in the middle of doing the retrofit and when I start bragging, I want to be able to refer them to your website!

Speaking of which,

Wait until you see how this torque arm fit my new Moser 12-bolt. It's LIKE A GLOVE, dude! In fact, I had to use the bastard file to slightly bevel the Moser mounting pads, and recontour the torque arm mounting flanges like we discussed. After that, I tapped it into place with a brass hammer and it very nearly snapped into position. I tightened the four fasteners (That is what Moser uses: No long bolts! Woo hoo!) to 110 ft.lbs and I swear, you can tap the end of the torque arm with a hammer and the axle housing will ring like a bell, it's that rigid.

I'll be sending you the modification templates so that you can duplicate the dimensions to accomodate other future Moser axle assemblies.

Kick ass, I can't wait to try this thing out!

Oh yeah, while I remember: I need more suspension stuff. so BRING ON THE WEBSITE so I can place my order! I need six new rod ends, I should get some more weld-in LCA relocation brackets, and I need swaybar mounts that fit a three-inch axle tube.

Hey Jason,

Just to let you know, those templates are in the mail for you along with pictures of the T/A modification.

Also, I wanted to let everyone know that once I made it known that I had the wrong axle, within four hours Moser called the builder back and offered to ship the correct axle housing and axles via FedEX free of charge. So, on Monday I will lift that heavy thing into the back of the minivan and drive it 90 miles to the shop where the builder will swap the guts over to the new housing while I wait. So it looks as if I'll only be losing out on some time and gas money. Moser customer support worked well this time around!

I must say, I'm sure looking forward to trying out this Detroit Truetrac on the road course! I'm just not sure about the mass of the axle, and how it'll affect the handling of the car. There's probably 50, maybe 75 pounds more weight there than a standard 10 bolt. However it's still 50 to 75 pounds less weight than a Ford nine inch.
