floater spindles
noslin:
been looking at floater spindle setup for rearend. doing some search found out Moser makes a setup. its about 1k plus less then new MW and strange. i'd say its comparable to the Strange setup based on bearing dia. the MW uses a bigger inner/outer bearing.
here is one of the kits http://www.moserengineering.com/part-ff4050-moser-full-floater-kit-assembly.html

if you were starting from scratch and if there was a possibility you might run headsup class in the future its only about 1k more to do this at time of initial build.

My car has floaters on it. One issue I had was the caliper mount was held on with 6 1/4-20 flat head screws. After a couple stops the bolts would stretch and the mount would be loose. I drilled and reamed two more holes on each side and drove in solid 1/4" pins and never had the problem again.

if you are building new and have the funds(or close to it) most deffinatly use a floater, saves from having to spend more money later on, You dont need the dual caliper mount , a single works just fine
noslin:
learned to day the Mosers use 11.5 dia rotors so youll need 16" wheels.
