Therapy needed.

Here's the situation:

Busted my 4 link upper mount.

Been fighting a vibration for a long time.  Tried everything.  Including a different engine. Ha.
Housing is the only thing I haven't tried, yes I got new axels and went through the center section too.

So I said enough,decided since I had to re-du the upper links on the old one anyways due to the new design of the RMS four link.  I'd replace everything.

Ordered from moser. Called it in.  Asked for a mopar 8 3/4 housing, Ect.  I asked about the fabricated unit. He said it was strong enough. I told him about the four link ect. And he said it was fine. 

So the boxes come and I'm so excited I just started getting it in.  Didn't realize till it was too late.  Big mistake on my part.  But it's a ford 9" and I didn't realize the true difference. I thought it was their "fabricated 8 3/4".  Not their truly fabricated housing. Which is what I thought I was getting!
  Had to cut it some.

What should I do?   Just run the 9".  Not real happy all the way around.  Frustrated with myself most of all.   

Ya ya. I'll call em Monday.   Unless you say put it in.   I'm at a total loss and lookin for advice.

Not sure why it even matters tho.  Car has Ford spindles/rack,corvette C5 brakes. GM column.  Bah. Nothing is original.   

Someone slap me.,

It's a custom car anyway. If it doesn't bother you. Run it!  Nice looking piece.

Yep, I say put it in. 

Lots of folks happy with their ford 9.

Yep, I say put it in. 

Lots of folks happy with their ford 9.

                                     As strong as a Dana.

You didn't realize you had a Ford 9" ?

[dodj]

Ford 9" is the only good assembly ford made. Use it!

[Cuda Cody]

It's a super strong rear end.  Not sure why you would not use it if the car is fairly custom.  They are good rear ends.

[YellowThumper]

I also go with the concensus and use it "as planned". LOL

[RUNCHARGER]

So, you need a 9 inch center section now? Add that all up I suppose.. I know Dana 60 you basically can use all stock components, 9 inch you upgrade everything I understand.

I recall a post CP once posted years ago that the Ford 9" takes power away. More drag.   

[Chryco Psycho]

At the race track if you see 4 guys working hard to push a car downhill it has the 9".
But if you see 1 guy casually pushing a car uphill it has a Dana diff !!
we used to calculate a 30Hp [rwhp] on the dyno with any car running a 9"
 

[IMNCARN82]

Thanx for the help,appreciate that a lot. 

Decided to put it in. 

Can someone please tell me where this piece goes?

I'd guess in the center section, in between the axels ?

Thanx again for the input!

That would seem correct
