I broke the clutchs in the wifes rear.I grind the fiber off the clutchs and use only one steel between the clutchs and get 2 extra clutchs per side and there is no fiber to wear out. The rear is much tighter this way and last longer and holds more HP the last time I did it was so tight it even would scrub the inside tire when you where turning tight. its cheap and works and last about one summer of racing.untill we move up to a spool.

I may be able to help, but i havent decoded the rear axle code for my gf's wrecked truck. If it is a posi, than you can have the whole differential minus the gears. for free, just pay for shipping. I'll check the code for it tomorrow.

I like to get the extra 2 per side and if I grind off the fiber there is no clutch to wear out.the car runs low 11s and should run in the tens with the new fuel system installed with the fiber left on the clutchs I get one less per side and I need all I can get as it goes through the rear clutchs every year now as it is the real fix is the spool. but money is tight right now.
