Hello All, I recently picked up a 9" center chunk with brand new gears and supposed posi unit. The posi unit does not look like the standard Ford I am accustomed to. This unit has a pin in the center and what looks to be 4 yellow springs as well. Can anyone out there tell me what this is? I have pics of the unit if you would like to see them. Thanks Again! 1MadMav
that looks like an auburn posi. its cone type of posi. they work well as long as its not worn out. if the housing is bent, the posi will wear out really fast. http://www.auburngear.com/aftermarket/product_details.aspx?SKU=Ford%209,%2010%20Bolt&ReturnURL=/aftermarket/product_listing.aspx?Category=177c81e2-c480-4a6a-9137-2f095fce82a5&page=1&pagesize=10000&text=&EPCString1=&EPCString2=&EPCString3=
Bryant, I'm thinking this is a "Detroit Locker" unit... I just seen one online but the picture don't show the top of the hat. This unit don't look like the Auburn one on their website. I appreciate your quick response and look forward to hearing from more people out there on this also. 1MadMav
that site doesnt have aftermarket carriers on it. it could be a detroit, but the mention 4 yellow springs sounds like an aubrn. do you have a picture of the spings?
A Richmond Lock-Rite also has 4 springs in it BUT in the picture the part where the bolts go that hold the 2 halves together are not stock FORD I don't think. Looks aftermarket. clint
