14 bolt c-clip eliminators
#22
Although I will likely upgrade, my OE 13" rotors and dual piston calipers are bolted to my custom 9.5 14 bolt for now. Of course I drilled and tapped the mounting flanges exactly the same as the original OE 8.6 rear. Not sure if the flanges on the newer 14 bolt shafts will fit inside your OE rotors without machining. I would think they would just bolt up as the new ones are designed for even smaller disc brakes. I think mine were cut down a little, but they were designed for a drum setup. I have a set of Yukons in there now. Not even sure if the newer 9.5's use the same size shafts as the older ones.

It will bolt up fine, the holes on the mounting flange on the axle are the same size and pitch as the 10b. The only difference between the single pistion and the dual piston is the rotor is slightly wider for the dual piston.

cool sounds good then. now to save money to do the damn thing. i think i'm going to go with a new drive shaft while i'm at it just to have the strength. but my stock one has a balancer looking thing on it. can i get a new one with that on there?

I thought you meant the center support of the 2 piece, but im not sure what you mean since you have a one piece. The part to balance it should be a little plate welded to one of the ends...

this thing looks like a harmonic balancer on the yoke itself. i bought a used SSS t-case and the output bushing was shot to hell and chewed up my yoke alittle and now it has a small leak. so i will need a new one anyway.
