Needs a good home or otherwise. Posi/limited slip carrier. From factory with 3.27 gears. Posi unit is good but bearing(s) make a lot of noise. Driver side axle possibly bent. Gears have a wear ridge, unless you want to run 3.73 good luck on finding ring and pinion at a decent price. I did not take the axle to work and do a shaft runout. I had a hard time removing the brake rotor and axle. BFH to remove rotor and car jack to pop the axle out. 160k miles is the reason for the price. I don't want to try and make a buck when it may give another a problem.

Price is the cost of your gas to Fort Worth.

 

uh...........Id like to take the 1st stab at this please. But id like to mail you money for shipping. Also this is a Ford 9" correct that came off your 3rd gen.

 

It's a 9 BOLT, not a 9 INCH.

uh ok.....dont know anything about 9 bolts but thanks for the reply. Thought i found a steal there for a second

 

It is a Chevy. It aint perfect but the carrier gave no problems at all. Slight vibration at 70+ and probably supports my thoughts that the one axle is tweaked...not much but still tweaked I think. I don't want to ship this thing, easier to just haul it off.

 

ok so how strong is a 9 bolt rear end anyway. If it isworth it I would making shipping well worth for you

 

I don't know how much stronger it is in real terms. Unless wanting to go from an open 9bolt to a posi 9bolt I am not sure the strength increase is worth the expense. Parts are expensive when you can find them. If strength is a real concern go with a 9 inch ford or 12 bolt Chevy.

 

How good is the posi? I have a 9 bolt but 2.77 gears, not a good combo with my engine, and plus the overdrive with my 700R4. Going 70 on the expressway pulling between 1200-1500 RPM's is pretty much lugging my motor. Would the 3.27's work with my rear, is it a series 1 or 2 carrier??? Let me know if you are willing to part it.

 

It will fit your car and was fine when removed three weeks ago with exceptions noted above. I dont want to fool with taking it apart and shipping.

 

Too bad that it wont help much in durability. I already have a solid 60' time which means im lauching alittle too hard at the track and that is all on a stock L98 motor, stock 700R4, and a stock 3:23 rear end. Of course when I get the motor back in with another 50-75 horses in motor mods and I up the nitrous and I get my TH350 with transbrake and 3500 stall i am risking blowing up my rear end. Shoots if it was stronger than my 10 bolt and would easily go install instead of swapping i would send you a butt load of money and just ship it and keep the rest. But i understand it is a pain to ship things but cash in pocket is cash in pocket ya know Good luck on sale. I will let Z28.com buddies know of your sale and maybe they might want it
