Also you should check your driveshaft length.

yeah I know that, thanks

I figured out what the problem was, its the mount on the rearend. they make 2 different mounts, 1 for factory 10 bolt and 12 bolt, and the other mount is for moser 9". I need another mount for my torque arm.

I had to cut about 1.5 inches off the transmission end of the BMR torque arm. The BMR torque arm had different holes on the torque arms differential end specially for the 9". Also you will need to massage the tunnel so it won't hit going over bumps. Hope this helps.

How far forward was our torque arm? I am running a spohn torque arm with a moser 9 inch, and when I installed it I noticed that it sat about an inch forward in the car. I also had to switch the two holes the torque arm uses to mount to the rear end, spohns torque arm has four holes.

But I never heard that Moser makes two different torque arm mounts.

moser dont make 2 diff mounts. its the torque arm mount. when you order a after market TA you have to specify if you have a stock or 12 bolt, and or a 9". its the rear mount of the TA.

That is what I thought but you had me worried about the moser mount. I have a spohn torque arm and they dual drill it to accept them both.

Shorten you torque arm up as much as possible and reinstall and reset pinion angle, should fix the problem....
