Factory rear end question
 

Can I install a posi into my factory rear that has 2.41 gears in it and will it work ?
This is for my 79 Camaro

ohh ya just swap out the center section with a LSD and you can also change the gearing to a 3.23 or a 3.73 (really any gearing you want) is this a 10 bolt?

Do you already have the posi?

I pretty sure its a 10 bolt, i"d be suprised if it was anymore.

Nope, not yet but hopefully soon.
I was thinking of a Auburn pro posi. :icon_shrug:

All the 8.5" 10 bolt rears on 2nd Gens are the same housing. The carriers are sized for the ring gear, so if you're going to change to a 3 series, you need to change to a 3 series posi carrier to accept that ring gear.
They do make ring gear spacers that will allow you to install a 2 series posi carrier and a 3 series ring gear with a spacer. I just went through this last year with my Chevy powered Austin gasser that had a weird rearend in it. Couldn't find a posi carrier, or a proper 3 series carrier, so I ended up using the spacer and it is working great with my 3.73 gear set.

Has anybody here tried the Powertrax Traction Systems (not talking about the Lock-Right). Liked it or no? The nice thing is it fits into your existing carrier and you don't have to setup your gears. POWERTRAX® EXTREME TRACTION SYSTEMS

BLK79 maybe the power trax would be right for you.

Hey Camaro-69, why didn't you think of that?

I've had a Power Trax locker in my Camaro since 1978. I like it, and no problems.

Let us know what you decide and how it worked out.
