Coming Soon to a GMR near you!
NOT available yet, but coming soon! More information will be provided upon “official” release! http://thegmr.com/wp-content/uploads...n-1024x314.jpg The Concept – Due to demand from our growing client base The GMR has been working on another option for your rear end demands! We needed something that replaces the gap between Full-Floater and Semi-Floater. Although this setup is not a full floater it is however a step above traditional flange style axles. To complement our growing OEM style line of products this rear end is perfect for the true OEM die hard fanatic! http://thegmr.com/wp-content/uploads...2-1024x144.jpg I would like to say it was rocket science but honestly its really simple, start with a General Motors stock ZR1 upright with Z06 brake package and slap it onto a housing. Remove the upright and relocate the caliper, then connect the dots…. BAM! A proven and great OEM offering for your rear end! What to look for! Will Accept ANY C5/6 stock hub assembly, GMR suggests the 33 spline Zr1 rear hub but GMR will also tear them apart and replace the internals with ceramic bearings for those seeking the ultimate in performance. These will fit ANY housing, from 12-bolt to Ford 9 inch and up to a 3.25″ axle tube diameter. Will accept ANY brake package designed for the rear of a C5/6 Corvette. Retains the stock parking brake assembly and hub electronics Will work with ANY suspension package Can be installed by ANY GMR Builder with the TX-C6 components Axles available in Hy-tuf and 300M for ANY gear set configuration. Here is a PDF of the GMR9-C6 Rear End Order Form for you to review should you have any questions. http://thegmr.com/wp-content/uploads...d-Sheet-C6.pdf Jason |

Im surprised that I have still not had any comments on the NEW GMR9-ERR-300 housing is all these recent pics I have posted... :D The first EVER fabricated housing designed just for the Pro-Touring industry... 3-weeks until its release! :thumbsup: and thanks for the comments! :cheers: Jason |
Nice work Jason! I'm partial to this design. :D Tell me about the axles and inner seals you're using?

Basically axles resemble the Corvette "half shaft" outer.... and of course being a live axle now, will be a traditional spline of choice at the carrier. We are using a very common seal that is available at any auto parts store/summit/etc. It installs in the weld on end and is the only seal we will recommend with this setup. We will be releasing more details on axles/etc. soon. We are happy to round out our product line with this OEM style live axle. Thanks for the kind words Ron... your car is looking real nice! Jay |
Thanks Jay. I hope this is a home run for you guys :cheers:

Jay looks great! Question I have a DSE 9 inch housing q-link brackets, what would I need to do to use this setup? Do I need to change the housing ends? Does the houing have to be done by GMR or can it be done by anyone? I have Strange 30 minutes from me. I know you haven't released this yet but I really like this idea. Thanks

Yes, cut off existing housing ends and install new GMR C6 End. No the install is not recommended without GMR-TX system or by GMR-TX builder. C6 Flange End Kits will need to be purchased through the GMR builder whom will be performing the install. Now with that being said there are a few variables to whether or not you will be able to obtain your exact existing wheel mount surface. The biggest variable is what length flange end your current housing has. For example Curry has a Big Ford end that measures approx. 1-1/4" from weld side to axle flange side, were as Art Morrison has a Big Ford end that measures 2". The Curry "End" is able to be cut off and almost obtain your existing WMS but would fall approx. 1/4" short per side. The Art Morrison end once cut off will shorten your WMS by approx. 1" per side. So you will see, depending on how long your current "end" is will affect WMS with new system. BUT, we are already working on a cost effective solution that will guarantee you can obtain current WMS. Sure it would be easy to just add material to the length of the C6 End on the "welded side" to gain distance..... but that is additional material cost/machine time and believe it or not these bad boys are machine time intense. We have a couple things we are working out right now so keep your fingers crossed! Let me know how long your flange end is. Hope this info helped. Please do not hesitate to ask questions. Thanks, Jay |
^ It's a Moser housing and has the long ends on it. Same issue I had w it, so you'll need to modify it to assure the same WMS.
Did you keep the killer box Rick? :D |
