I have heard that there are a bit of issues with them and want to see what others here say. Here is the scoop on the rear..

Ford 8.8 rear with GM 10 bolt axle tubes
31 spline Ford Torque Lock
Motive 4.10 gears
Moser custom axles with GM lug pattern.

I'm looking at a couple different options.

1) C-Clip eliminators.
2) Custom Strange 9 inch ends that fit the GM tubes.

I have been told C-Clip e's leak and cause a lot of drag. By going 9" ends I would get rid of the added drag and have less chance of a leak. Any input?

Mine leak and Im going to get rid of them eventually. They should be up for sale whenever I get around to removing them.
