This past weekend i did a couple of burnouts and both times i only laid down one strip of rubber. What would cause me to only spin my right tire? It's a 99 TA if it makes any difference. Thanks

So youre saying that it is not the posi but the whole 10 bolt that is giving out? Whats the best way to pin point the problem to determine if its something fixable or if its time to invest in a 9"/12 bolt. Since i dont spend much time at the track i would like to avoid going to the 9" or 12 bolt.

You probably have a torsen differential, and it is doing what torsens do best. It is a very wimpy diff and can't hold up to much - it just does the one wheel peel for you instead of locking down both wheels. If you are hearing no abnormal noises/sounds, chances are everything is technically ok - the diff itself is just a crappy design.
