I'm running a 468/530hp in 67 ss.I have a m-21 & 410 posi.I'm thinking of replacing rear axles, has any used moser engineering? $225 a pair 30 spline c-clip style. Seems like a good price.I do have a set of drag radials that I run sometimes.Any info would help...thanks

I've been using those axles in my car for almost three years now and I've been real happy with them. I think I may be running towards the upper limits of their design and will be switching to a stronger axle with Ford style bearings and a spool at the end of this year (unless something happens sooner).

I have Moser 33 spline axels, Ford style bearings and 1/2 inch studs.

I an running a 5 speed and will be using some big Hoosier slicks. Hoping everything stays in one piece but I won't find out until it stops snowing around here. :(

I bought Superiors from http://www.chrismans.com/Axle.html

They look as good as the Mosers and have cut, not rolled, splines. $204 to my door.

Assuming similar metallurgy, cut splines are much stronger.

ditto, I have the same axles and run a stick shift. Not putting out 530HP, but no problems with them either.
