Shorten SE rear for Rx2
I recently picked up a 73 rx2. It already has a gsl lsd rear installed. I originally was planning on swapping in a 8.8 from a fox body mustang. but I soon realized it would be overkill for my goals. so I decided to build the rear thats in the car.
I also have a spare bare gslse rear and a complete gslse rear. I plan to cut down a gslse rear to the original rx2 length. And use a gsl or gslse lsd in a kia 4.88 third member. And a set of moser axles cut to length... Now my question is, (hopefully he sees this) does anybody, like REspeed offer different length moser axles for the 1st gen rears? any problems with what I am planning on doing?

RE-Speed doesn't offer them, only GSL and GSL-SE length.
You can however call Moser yourself and give them the custom length, with all else being the same as the ones they make for RE-Speed, and they will do it. While you are at it, get them drilled for 5 lug and convert the front suspension to GSL-SE and get the RE-Speed TII brake conversion. Easy.

I contacted re-speed and they do offer different lengths. I already have the 5 lug set up and gslse fronts ready to go for the front. I just haven't chosen a set of wheels yet so I'm undecided on if I will be staying 4 or 5 lug.
