finally found the needed axle
8.8 with lsd and c clip eliminators and moser upgraded axles :P
first gear with the T56 should get me to 100km/h at 6300 rpm :ok:
so we should see some acceptable 0-100 times

this is an original commodore gear

Looks like your making progress. That c-clip eliminator is scary. Is it made for the street or for just drag racing?

Every C-clip eliminator I seen , had a warning not for street or roadcourses. This was due in part to the excessive side loads generated that made the c-clip elimator fail. The two main failures are bearing failure and bearing retention on the axle.
Be careful man

Good you mentioned it.
What i will do is, to make sure if the bearing retention fails (the halfshaft can only go inwards the diff-carrier) make the end of the halfshaft to be VERY close to the pin (sattelite wheel retentioner) so not much can happen
i can do this because i shortend the axletubes, as much as the splines on the moser axles let me. :roll:

Thats the best i can do that i can think off ( i don't have a safe feeling with the c-clip setup either)
