u have to notch the trans
u have to notch the trans
After installing the entire differential the actual hubs are the incorrect size for the axle to protrude through.
None of the rear differential hardware provided by full-blown motorsports aligned with the machined holes. This required additional jigging and drilling.
I will never ever buy another full-blown product!!!!
lmao it clearly states in the v160 installation instructions with pics to notch the tranny housing

I guess I never didn't pay enough ($7,000) because they never gave me an instruction manual for the install.

my v160 conversion stuff lined up pretty well, but I gotta say it seems like every single person gets the incorrect axle sizes when ordering the rear end kit, the bags are labeled, but instructions would def make it a lot easier for the average guy installing this thing

The axles do not extend all the way through the hub. There is still about an inch gap left.
Full blown motorsports does not care nor are they willing to make the adjustment to correct.
Buyer beware!

I was about to order my rear end kit today... They have been sending axles that are incorrect sizes?

If you having an issue with the hubs from Full blown please contact me and ill see whats the issue is, as for the axles there is a long and a short. 20-3/4'' & 22'' Bars so make sure you have them on the correct sides. they have sold quite a few of these and not had any issues so please take your time and check them out.

I don't run the getRag but. I have the 8.8 kit and I keep breaking the same side axle from roll racing from 40 on up. I broke a 600hp inner at 500hp. Replaced it with a 1000hp inner, and my axle is clicking like hell a month later. I've never had the car on a track once lawls.
DSS also forgot 4 of my bolts and my DS I had rebalanced due to some vibration.
(22" side) for the record
Not impressed -__- (thousands later)
