Rearend Upgrade/Rebuild
The posi in my rearend is shot bc it only spins the passenger side tire and when I give the car throttle in its power range it pulls to the right like the only tire pulling is the right tire. i want to know what I should do just rebuild the rearend and posi or upgrade? I was looking at Eaton and Auburn diffs but I dont know the difference if any.

RE: Rearend Upgrade/Rebuild
Friction modifier is the factory additive for trac loc or posi's. It costs about $5 for a four ounce bottle. Also, is your fluid level high enough. Back of the diff, 3/8" square socket drive for the fill plug.

RE: Rearend Upgrade/Rebuild
well i dont know if you have gears or not but if you dont now would be a good time to add them. If you ever want to do hard launches with slicks or drag radials it might make sense to upgrade to a 31 spline rear end. Auburn and Eaton both make great diffs... as does Moser and strange make good axles. I have seen though that some strange axles dont work with the factory ABS.
been there before haha.
