Hello everyone! I finally got the Tomcat back and running, still breaking it in, though. It really really needs the lower gears. I am currently running a set of tree-fiddy's. I have a 4.11 Traction Lok pumpkin at home all ready to go, except that is a 31 spline unit. Soooo, I need to get some 31 spline axles. Which ones should I get? Strange, Moser, someone else? What kind of prices? I am planning on going with the 3 inch studs at this time as well. What else will I want to get with the new axles? What kind of info do I need for ordering, like length? Thanks for all the help! Tom ------------------ 1991 F150, 4X4, lift, 35's, 4.9l 1991 Mustang LX 5.0L, AOD 1970 Cougar, 351C-4v, C6

Tom,I use Moser, they are good axles and they have a 48 hour turn-around on custom axles. 3" studs are std. Paid about $320 (if I remember right for the last pair). Get their bearings and backing plates installed too. Here's a link to them, www.moserengineering.com SteveW [This message has been edited by steve'66 (edited 06-06-2001).] [This message has been edited by steve'66 (edited 06-06-2001).]

I use strange S/S axles on everything I build. My brother and father on the other hand use moser units. I don't think it would really make that big of difference. I looked at both when I bought the axles for my Falcon, and the only reason I bought the stranges was the wait time on the mosers was too long for the pieces I bought. ------------------ http://www.trawets.com 1999 F-150 4x4, 5" Superlift, 35" BFG M/T's, Precision Gear 4.56's 1961 2-dr Falcon -in work- 1954 F-100, 460, narrowed 9"

if the rear end is stock width the factory 31 spline axles will do.
