    What do I need to do to run theese?

    The 31spline has chunks of metal missing from the spyder gears.
    That was posted April 11th. I am sure they are long gone at that price.

        He has them, I texted him.

        I hear c clip elim are not for street use, can I take them off and run c clip? Or have I been told wrong? What mods to my axle tubes to run c clip elim?

          you have to drill holes in your brake backing plate for them to be retained to the housing instead of a C-clip. Not hard to do but if you do not want the eliminators i will buy them from you. lmk.

            On those axles I can take them off and run c clips right? Im all for making some money back off them. What all is needed to take them off?

            I have never seen c clip eliminators so I'm a noob with this.

              Are c clip eliminators okay for street use?

                A PRESS! Any machine shop will do it. Do you have a Jegs catalog? There in there. It is basically a square block of aluminum machined to fit on the axle and then bolt to the brake backing plate. Did he say they were already pressed on the axles?

                  Yes they are. I asked for pics to be sure.

                  If they will work for street use I wouldn't mind them but idk i need all that just yet. Plus If I can make some of that back I'd be in good standings.

                              No i agree i have heard both also and seen one leak on a friend of mines car. He even ordered a new one put it on and that fucker leaked also. I remember helping him pull the axle out about 10 times. I have also seen people run them for years no issues. They are already pressed on i would just drill the holes and use them. The guy said they were unused. In fact if he don't buy them i will! lol.
