You're right. I keep thinking of posi as being a locker type diff.

Oh well, either way I still want to see that video! lol!

Posi, as said before is a GM trademark for their limited slip diffs. Trac-loc is FoMoCo and Sure-grip is Mopar. ALl do the same thing but use different names. Nowadays its easier for them to just use Limited slip or anti-spin.


BTW when you hook the trucks up, be sure to toss a heavy tarp over teh center of the chain/strap incase it snaps.

yup, me too...

A locker would be a pain in the ***... corners would totally suck.
Yeah, I've seen guys tack weld their spider gears together on older cars. This is the old-school way to change an open diff to one that works like a locker diff for drag racing.That would only last for a few drag runs because that weld snaps after a few turns. Not to mention how much the rear-end hops and the noise it gives off when they turn.
