get rid of traction control and is it auto or manual? most autos go 12 bolt and manuals 9" but if it was me (knowing what id do to the car power wise) id just go with a 9" from my past research exotic performance plus has the cheapest moser 9" but if you're lookin to do suspension i would save up some money call midwest chassis and have them make you a fab 9" they have nice suspension pieces that are considered upgrades for the best $$$ ive seen. if you have the money definatly call midwest chassis ive bought stuff from them and they r great!

Think really hard about setting up your first rear end by yourself. The process is not super hard but it is very unforgiving. You make any mistakes and the result will be a boat anchor regarless of what you paid for the parts. Like manual transmissions the best way to learn the process is to do by the book but with someone who knows whats he is doing looking over your shoulder.

This not a judgemnt on you, its based off of how many rear "redos" I have done after someones first attemp and helping several mechanic with their first rear setup.
