3.09 gears for sure. I'm going back out to the shop in a few I'll crawl under there and see if I can see anything different with the cradle/mounts.

Can’t wait to see a ton of content on this car! That brace on the rear knuckle is interesting
Looks like it would keep the suspension in strict alignment. It is attached to all the connecting rod ends.

Cradle bolts and hardware all look the same as I remember on the Hellcat. Definitely isn't locked out or anything. Maybe that odd brace is their version of a "lockout" ?

In looking at that brace it looks like it bolts to the two upper arm mount points and maybe one of the brake caliper bolts? Is that correct?

Basically.

Curt has removed his to go with a 15" rear conversion. If anyone plans to also do this...be aware it's probably a requirement depending on the combo you run.

If any 170 owners remove these and wanna get rid of em. I'll take em.

I wish they'd put that rear end package in the damn catalog already!

Their only obvious purpose would be to strengthen the cast spindle. So now I have to wonder how many rear spindles they broke(I'd guess from the tire shake these cars have already shown to be prone to) to go through the trouble of making these braces...

I wonder if eco mode is actually a test of automotive morals, like if you select eco mode does the ECU lock you out of any higher power setting for life.

I'm surprised it doesn't just have an animation that laughs at you when you push the eco button in it.

Decided to tear the engine down real quick to see what's what. Billet main caps.

I'm kidding of course, but these are supposedly the billet main caps.

You sure you didn't tear the engine down just to have a peek? Last 4 digits of the part number match your car build number. I think we are looking at your main caps here.;)
