What do you guys think abou these:POWERTRAX No-Slip Posi

I bought a car that came with a 8.2 rear end that has a peg leg with a mini-spool. I hate the mini-spool... You can just imagine what it sounds like at Sonics drive in.

I thought this would be an easy alternative that I could put in the place of the mini-spool myself.

I cruise the car alot, it doesn't have a lot of power. I'd say it has around 350hp or so. I'll run at the track some on regular tires but don't plan on beating up on it alot. I don't plan on road racing it any.

I found one I think I can get for $250-300 range, what do you guys think about them?

Hey zboss. I'm rocking one in my daily driver. Compared to the open diff it is fantastic. Some of the usual locker draw backs though. On wet pavement or snow the back end likes to come out on the 1-2 shift. It's also kinda noisy, but thicker oil can mask some of that. I personaly can't here it, but I've gotten some pretty funny comments though, specialy in parkades. Richmond did tell me not to try and put more than 300 whp through it though. It will live with more, but not as long. Oh ya, manual tranny's and slicks are another thing they said to avoid. But that is pretty obvious. For $250-300 it's a pretty good deal for a stockish vehicle.

Cheers, Ryer

The Lock Right is much better than the No-Slip. Many people have had problems with the No-Slip. They just stop pulling with no warning.

I decided to purchase a 9" housing and will probably end up with a stock 31 spline posi unit.

As long as you don't try to put too much power in the stock Traction Lock and keep woeel hop under controll it will probably be fine. The stock unit isn't very strong.

This is what happens to them.
