Rear Drag Brake Question, Ford 9 inch

csjta · 10-27-2007, 07:42 PM

I have a Moser Ford 9 inch that I installed in my 4th Gen Firebird, it has GM axle ends

I called Mark Williams to order a rear disc brake kit, the person I talked to says that there kits will not work with my rear, because of the "standout" measurement, or the measurement from the axle housing to the axle flange. The measurement on my rear is 2.70, MW says I need 2.80

What I was wondering, does Moser or anyone else make a bearing spacer to correct this?

Press the bearings off, install .100 spacer, reinstall bearings. This would set the axle out .100 and correct my problem.

Will this work? Is my thinking right?
