Moser Axles-When?

[Scoobum]

At what short time is it good to go with Moser axles? I normally pull low 1.6's...is it time?

[Steve Wood]

I think so

[Steve Wood]

be nice if you could hold out until you need a new posi...then you could upgrade to 30 splines with a matching posi

Do you have a girdle?  What does your car weigh?  My car weighs in at 4050lb with me in it.  I pulled a 1.61 60ft three times then snapped the axle on the next pass and this was still with the stock converter, unopen motor with only a TE-44.  I upgraded to 30 spline, but if I were you play it safe and get some better axles.

Are you good at body work? Have you seen what a broke axle does to a quarter panel as it exits the housing?

Put em in. Just not worth the hassle of breaking one to find their limits.

That does not happen when you weld ford axle tube ends on the housing

Or when you convert to disk brakes...

Hmmmm I weighed my full weight 86 hardtop GN with me in it was 3650ish...that's crazy that there could be 400 pounds difference!

The reason it weighs so much is because of all the extras I have in it.  I told my buddy who own's a Stage II car, how much it weighed and he said, "No way!"  Then I opened my trunk for him and he then said,  "Yeah, possibly."  Car weighed 3800lbs when I put it on the scale.  I have T-Tops, the concert sound system with 10 after market speakers, 4 subs, 5 amps, and an electronic crossover, 10 disc exchanger.  Car also has carpeted trunk kit.  And when I race I couldn't be bothered with removing anything, not even the spare.

[Forzfed]

No, they don't weigh enough.  I have solid gold dice with diamonds.
