I have a 2001 z28 m6 with 94,xxx miles makeing 360 rwhp.

after 94,xxx miles of hard driveing and racing the rearend is starting to go.
Since I am building the engine up more I know I should switch to either a 12bolt or even better a 9" rearend.

Because of money I cant do that right now, so what is the best/strongest replacement carrier? should I go with an auburn, eaton or what for my factory 10bolt?!?!


thanks guys!

 

wow, no one has a recommendation of the best posi/LSD to buy for a 10bolt?


I'm surprised!

 

Well, I replaced my Zexel-Torson with a HD Eaton posi and GM factory 3:73's. It cost like $460 for the posi, but, I have just completely finished wearing out a set of MT ET Street Drag radials .... they were bald, so, I had to get new tires. Yank SS3600, FLP 4L65E racelevel 5 tranny, forged motor with AFR heads/port matched 224/228 Mamo cam specs and other stuff. Dawged the **** out of it everytime I pulled out for 2,000 solid miles and it hasn't faultered a bit. Rearend is quiet as can be. I don't think you'll find a stouter posi unit and it's totally rebuildable. Probably some out there that are as tough, though ... just don't know of any ... maybe Detroit or some racing posi.

 

cool thanks!!!

 

anymore thoughts!

 

yea, read my sig about the rearend parts, im around 450hp launching off slicks (A4) and nitrous

 

when my rear got toasted i went with the hd eaton unit. so far no problems. i'm getting ready to go with a nine soon

 

Im replacing my rear end with a HD Eaton and ill let you know how it goes

 

Get a standerd Torsen. Like $100 I believe. If you spend like $400 on an Auburn thats $300 you could have saved for a 12 bolt.

 

Eaton

 

Get a Eaton. Just put one of these in my uncle's Z28 and its very nice.
