OK opinions.

I know there were problems with Warns, and i guess they discontinued them, but what about Moser's?

 

[Crazed]

Havent heard about the Moser's specifically, but I have heard the eliminators have problems with side loads...:shrug

 

[godless]

Well according to Mosers web site (biased of course) they are designed to handle rascing applications.
I am guessing that if they can handle racing applications, couldnt they handle slow off roading?:shrug :shrug
They accept bearings so it would convert 8.8's to a FF axle. That would be nice.

 

[Crazed]

By racing, I think they usually mean drag racing, which dosent have any side loads...:shrug

 

[godless]

Interesting. You are probably right strip racing.
HHMMM I wish we had a test bunny to try these..

Are you volunteering?

 

[seboh]

They aren't intended for high mileage, only a few hundred mi lifespan.

 

[godless]

Drilim- Sure if your buying:beer

Seboh- Not that I want challenge your inteligence, but how do you knot that? Was that listed on their web site or something?
Just curious thats all.:shrug
Thank you

i know i am stupid and liek to break things but what happens if you ran both just for the heck of it.....wouldn't you now not have the problem with side load...until you break an axle and it is stuck in there....or for the money they want just bu a d60 to put back there...:beer

 

[seboh]

They use spherical bearings. They're not designed to be used under high loads, side-loading, etc.

 

[jerry 1 a b]

I dunno if these will last or not, but thanks for the link to the site. They got some good stuff on there.:thumbup

 

[SquattyD]

yeah if you lift one rear tire and gas it, youre gonna lose em

I thought I heard that Currie had C-clip elimators

 

[Tunedup]

All you have to do Is get an c-clip elem kit that has roller bearings not ball. Then you tac weld the bearing to the axle. When I used to race roundy round cars we had problems with 9" rear ends spiting the axles out so they only fix was to weld them.


ball bearings wont take side loads but, cylinder shaped ones will.



The biggest problem with c clip eleminators is that they leak unless you rtv the hell out of them.



You cant run c clips and c clip eleminators cause you have to eithe run special axles that dont have the grove or you have to machine the grove for the c clip off.

 

[Gacknar]

I have a 89 Mustang GT that I have done a few mods for running around corners, so I know a little about this. I would not put them on my Mustang and defonantly not my Bronco.

The first thing is as I understand it the eliminators are designed for Mustang 8.8" 28 spline axels and wont fit the truck 32 spline axels, but I may be wrong.

Second they do not like side lowding at all, you can weld the bearing to the axle, but I have also heard of them breaking the bolts where they are mounted to the axle flange.

Go to http://www.corral.net/forums/ and search for c-clip eliminators thos guys have a lot of experiance with them.

I hope this helps:toothless

C clip eliminators .. a $150 diff cover .. axle truss :twak

Dude, stop fukkin around and buy a sterling will ya :shrug .... unbolt the 8.8 and sell it to some jeep dude who would cream in his pants for it .. have an axle that can handle a heavy truck and never look back ................. yeah yeah , 8 lug blah blah ... shoulda got a D60 front :goodfinge




Can't help it Beerdude .... I just don't see all of the work you are putting into this 8.8 being worth it

 

[Dustin]

:stupid

leave it be it will be fine for what your doing with it right now. Ive run my 8.8 locked with 33s and 35s now for about a year without problems.

 

[i0n]

i hear the c clip eliminator kits have issues...no matter where they come from....i do know that currie enterprises offers a 8.8 with 9" housin ends which wind up using 9" axles i believe

 

[Tunedup]

Im not sure if they make them for ford 8.8 but, Mark Williams c clip eleminators are pretty nice.

 

[MikeW]

I scanned this out of my older Ford Motorsport Catalog.

Is this the same thing that doesn't work like the other c-clip emlimators that were discussed?
