Re: 1976 14 bolt posi questions

The 'posi's' in the 14 bolts are actually a gov-lock. They aren't all that good and most will tell you to walk away, but it depends on what you're planning on doing with it. I used to have a '78 C20 Suburban with a weak 327 (originally 454) running 8.75 x 16.5 tires and never had a problem with the rear end....even with the 454. I don't think they require any special oil or friction modifier additive like the clutch type posi's need. I could be wrong though
