Rear is all back together......
 
After much debate and consulting lots of different sources I decided to put the axles back old axles back in. Moser's tech line said it was not a problem until the splines are twisted 1 full spline from top to bottom. I am about half a spline and probably have been that way since I owned the car after talking to the previous owner. The rear has never made a peep, so I decided not fix what wasn't broken.

I did however, chuck on some new rear Hawk Plus pads, new rotors, new sliders/pins/boots along with some new hard lines to better fit the shape of the Moser housing. A fluid change was also done and I have added a new breather line and a small breather tank that I will mount up under the chassis just to catch any oil mist. When I took the rear out there was only a 1 foot piece of rubber and it had coated the entire rear underbody with an oily residue. Looking to avoid that if possible.

To address the torque arm issue I bought a new mount from SPOHN, new grade 8 hardware and red loctited those babies in, then saftey wired them just to be sure.

Now if the weather holds out I'll get that pig back under the car this weekend and start mounting my new seat.
