Re: 12 Bolt Posi with 3:73 Gears

Thanks for the reply. That's kinda the range I was thinking as well.

I knew there was a difference in between car and truck 12 bolts, however I don't remember now what those differences were. As I recall spline count and slight differences in dimensions of the components. However, they are the same "design".

MANY years ago I used to run 12 bolt with a posi in a race car. So I have had an intimate relationship with the car 12 bolts. I spent many hours with one of those spread out on the fender of my open trailer changing the spiders and clutches. It was a great day when I could afford my first spool and axles setup.

Yes, if it were me I would pull it apart, clean it up and replace bearings and clutches etc. That being said it may not be the best money spent in the long run. However, for a guy on a budget it would be a decent starter piece that would likely last many years.

Thanks again & Happy Trails.
