Need some help here. My stock 10-bolt posi is starting to "one leg" it sometimes with no other symptoms so I'm pretty sure all the track time is catching up with my posi clutch pack. I have never replaced just the clutch pack in a 4th gen F-bod. I did it once in the Dana 44 we had swapped into my 3rd gen way back when, and it was just a clutch pack that you could replace.

Questions: 1. I believe our 4th Gen 10 bolts are NOT the dreaded "cone" type posi that is not rebuildable. So I can actually just replace the clutch pack and go back to track and be happy. Someone confirm that please.

2. Where the hell can I get just a replacement clutch pack?
The dealer wants me to buy an entire "housing" for ~$500 just to get the clutch pack. I guess he meant an empty rear end. Don't know as I basically hung up on those dorks. Typical GM situation where you have to buy much more than you need.

Thanks in advance

 

Never mind. Just called GM and found out the carrier is "unserviceable". Have to buy a new one and transfer my ring gear to it.

Way to go GM!

Soon I'll be posting on the WTB forum for a cheap carrier from someone who threw a 12-bolt on their car.

 

Order an SLP take off Torsen for $99 and be done with it. Which car is having the problems? The 99-02 cars are torsen and have not clutches in them at all.

 

And the 98 and previous had Auburn posi carriers (cone type).

Sorry....

 

Guys,

thanks. It's my '94 that is starting to "one leg" sometimes. And I confirmed what you posted, it is the dreaded "cone type" that is not rebuildable.

I'll ask around locally. Gotta be someone who has swapped to a 12 bolt/ 9 inch before hurting their stock rear, and therefore has one in good condition just sitting around. Perhaps I can get a carrier off them for a small price.
