Anybody have any suggestions on the Auburn Mini Spool locker system. I have the 2.79 8" rearend. I am taking it off for cleaning and repair, and would like some sort of locking/limited slip system before I put it back on. Jegs sells the Auburn for under $70.

well thats not a true posi unit so to speak. You will Have Posi.....Just all the time. on the street it really isnt worth putting in your car if it is an everyday driver. It will cause your tires to squall and squeal around corners and when the roads get wet it isnt fun to drive at all. Auburn also makes the "ratcheting posi" the acts like a ratchet around corners but they are about 600.00 dollars. But if you just plan to drive it to shows and stuff then the spool is not a bad option.
Nothing against Auburn but I get those mini spools from GRT racing chassis for 20.00 and change. Most circle track suppliers have them too.
been driving with a mini spool for several months now. yup, chirps a little on sharp turns, but is minimal if you keep equal and elevated pressures in the rear tires. but what is this problem with driving in the rain? have had absolutely no problems, so far. i just drive normally; no hot rodding it. ??????
