You are playing with your life if you try to run a stock 7.5" rear end. Too small of a carrier.
That unit will never hold up to the heat you will generate with a high speed run. It may do it a couple of times, but I would not want to be in the drivers seat.
It becomes a whole new ballgame after 140mph.

Dude, what are you using for brakes???? Stock stuff??
The c-clip sounds like the least of your problems.

Well You have me impressed!!!!


I have a friend that runs a twin turbo vette out there. He is in the 200 MPH club. I just go by what he says is needed for that kind of speed.

I'm not trying to **** you off, but how come those guys didn't tell you where to get the parts you need??? I know Moser sells them.

To my knowledge, nobody makes c-clip eliminators for the 7.5 10 bolt. It's not a performance diff that manufactures want to spend money on designing parts for.

Going straight, C-clips aren't the problem.
