    Thinking about adding a 10 bolt Differential Girdle Cover on my 1971 Buick 8.5 rear Moser axle upgrade. That's the last thing I'm thinking somone can do for maximum rearend stringth.
    Does anyone have a used one they might part with at a fair price and consider freight? I dont mind doing the clean up on old aluminum. Just looking to see if theres a deal out there. I might have to go TA if not. Theres some chine junk online.

    I install a lot of the TA girdles on my customers rearends. They are one of the better designs.

    Yes, I agree. I'll be calling them for push rods and a girdle if I dont find a deal. I've found out you can get great deals here if your timing is good. You know. Save more to buy more. PARTS...

    Something else to consider might be arpu studs instead of stk bolts, they make aftermarket caps but are not an easy install

    Just make sure you get the right cover for the 8.5. The right one is the TA 1807. The catalog can be somewhat confusing. The GN takes the same cover.

    I did not know the GN was the same. Thanks for the part number.
    Guess the freight x 2 ran the price up. I'm sure if I thought hard enough I've done it.
