Gear Question

I can get a set of 3.23's from a 98 Z28 for $75. My question is, will these gears fit in my 92? I want to buy them, because (correct me if I'm wrong please) it will then be limited slip. However, if they're not going to fit, or if it won't be limited slip, I don't want to waste the money.

The gears will fit but the gears themselfs are not limited-slip or posi's... It's the differential that can be limited or posi. So unless your buying the gears with the differential included it won't be.

You have a 92 what? If your 92 has 2.73 or 3.08 gears now, then no, 3.23's wont bolt in. You will need a 3-series posi unit to use those gears. You can get one for $99 from www.slponline.com , its called their take-off torsen posi. Dont forget you'll have to change your speedo gears in your transmissions for the new rear gears.
That will give you the gears you want, plus a posi unit so both tires spin.
