Rears Anyone????

[gbodydude]

if it just a street car i would get a 8.5 non posi and put a posi unit in it.

I have around 350 hp with a 5 speed standard....I have no concerns running a 7.5 with 3:08 posi and Superior axles.

On top of that, with a taller gear like a 3.08 the teeth are thicker, which makes the ring gear less prone to any distortion it may have... in this case though it's more in the housing itself than the gears I believe.

i personally would go with the 12 bolt out of a Abody route

Some questions were asked about the 8.8 rear. It isn't a bad swap. The availability and cost definitely add to the appeal. The factory posi unit isn't that great. And just for the record, I have yet to break my 7.5.
