  • She can't be recycling tires one at a time, let's lock up the rear end the cheap way (besides welding it, I guess). While I'm in there, I put on a rear disc brake kit, and some air shocks. Time is running out for the April 3rd burnout competition!

      EXCEPT if it's Olds, Pontiac or Buick----twelve bolt cover, but ten bolt innards. Not same as Chevy 10 bolt. Good thing with those is NO c-clips and bearings don't ride on the axle shaft.

I got took on one of the 12 bolt/ 10 bolt BOP ring gear rears, nobody make a posi for it.

    The way a differential works is devilishly clever. They do say the engineer who invented had been working on it for a long time without any luck, so to clear his head he went out walking during his walk he was seen talking to a strange old man at the lonely old crossroads, that night when he got home he went to his draughting table and drew the differential fully formed in 5 minutes, lol. TBH it's probably been around since before the automobile.
