So by installing this how much stronger is the rearend? http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=TFS-8510100&N=0&autoview=sku looks like it's a cut and dry install? Anyone installed these if so was it easy anything to look out for when doing so? peace

The girdle is nice insurance, once you have swapped in race axles and a better diff. It is more necessary on a car with an aluminum casing. Having said that, I have one on my '95 (it is the Trick Flow brace). If you plan to run DR's or slicks, you will be glad you have braced the caps on your diff! (just ask Beenstroked about that) The install is easy. Just make sure you use the right fluids and friction modifier for your respective differential.

Check the torque spec on those 2 adjustment bolts,you don't wants to ruin the bearing.

I have the TA performance one on my GT, the drain and fill holes alone make it worth the money, the girdles are just some free insurance
