Trans Ams have a posi differential stock. If you car can't do it, your carrier is probably fried. There are a number of options in replacing it...
One would be to just replace the stock one... but personally I'd recommend using an Auburn or a Eaton carrier to replace it.

I had that problem with the stock rear end, It means the posi unit is toast. If you have the money I would go with a 12bolt or 9 inch, but if not mybee look into the difrent types of posi's that have already been talked about.

How much would a carrier cost? Where could I get one?

But if only one tire is spinning, that is definitely something wrong and needs to be fixed.
