i've already asked about this once but im going to ask again.


my neighbor has a fairmont with a built 302 and he runs a spool in the rear.

well when i rode in it the otherday to go to a car show i noticed it doesnt scrub or suff or squeal the tires around corners. i was told for sure it would. is it just the design of his suspension or what?

if i pul a strange spool, c clip elim. kit and axel kit....will i need to worry about scrubing, scuff or squealing of tires?

this isnt a daily driver, its just a fun car, weekend warrior and occasional track time. whats your input?

 

IMO, since it's not a heavy track car, I would spend the money elsewhere. Is your current rear beefed up at all now?

 

stock carrier, stock axels. 3.73's and new bearings. i'mtrying not to spend a tonnnn of money on the rear but ille doing some pretty hefty launches this coming up spring.



one reason i ask is the kit is only $650 for spool, c clip eliminator, and 31spline axels. it cost just that for a eaton/detroit locker, then you have to buy everything else.


what would be your suggestion?

 

Do you know what's involved w/ installing the eliminators?

 

31 spline diff w/ carbon fiber clutches 240.00 from BOI. Alloy brand axles from Summit, 225.00. You're ahead by 190.00

That's what I'm running.

 

I had spool on my other car. I'm much happier with my current set up which is eaton chunk and 33 spline mosers. I also had eleminators on the other car.....nearly impossible to keep from leaking. I pulled the axle several times and it would still leak.

 

Forgot to add that you have to cut the housing ends also.

 

a well bit trac loc will always hook 2 wheels up!!

 

i've got an explorer 31 spline tlok and yukon axles. all together including the 4.10's i bought i have less than 450 into my rear end. I have yet to install it but i'm sure it'll last through the abuse i'll be dishing out.

 

im really liking the way this set up is sounding.

i thinking of hittin this project while i convert ot disk in the rear.


yea the c clips eliminators dont sound fun. i was readin up on them while posting about this thread, seems like a lot of people dont like them.
