I bought a limited slip unit from a guy here that was worn out. So I bought the rebuild kit for the unit. I haven't started rebuilding the posi yet, but I also know that I need to get a few bearings and such for when I install it.

I have two questions:

•Is it fairly simple to rebuild the posi unit?

•What parts should I get for when I install the unit? Is there maybe a kit somewhere that you guys know of with the bearings and stuff?

 

go to ringandpinion.com they have master rebuild kits for the rear. Your best bet is to look up the posi unit on summitracing.com, most of the time they have downloadable instructions for the part. either that or get ahold of the manufacturer and ask them to send you the instructions. what kind of LSD is it? FYI in mopar world we dont use the term "posi", thats a general mortars word.

 

if its a stock lsd GET RID OF IT NOW they aren't good and dont last very long...i thought i remembered reading they weren't rebuild able either??

 

you can rebuild the stock lsd, but not an auburn lsd. When i get the money im buying a detroit true-trac LSD for my 8.25 rear, its about 500$ but it supposedly will never wear out because of its design. The stock LSD in my friend's 4.7 works just fine, they're not total junk.

 

it works just fine for about the 50-70k miles they work trust me do a search on any forum and you'll see what i mean when it comes to the stock lsd at least the ones they put in the corporate 9.25

 

i know they're not very good and they dont last long, but they're good enough for average use and pretty cheap to replace. you can get a new stock LSD for like 230$.

 

true im just sayin if you dont wanna have to worry about it again and get it fixed again down the line there not that good and you can get something better for just a little more

 

i rip the crap out of my 9.25 sure grip in my 05 dak. 66000, and it still lays down sweet rubber.
