Beefing up the 10-bolt-->Carrier Confusion

I may just beef up my 10-bolt instead of going 9-bolt. 4th gens do high 11's w/ 10-bolts and my goal is high 12's so I think I'll be fine. Anyway, the question:

I have an Open 3.08 Series 2 Carrier. Will the SLP Take Off Posi work? It says it's only for 3 Series though. Is there another Posi unit I could get for around the same price/strength for a Series 2 carrier?

SLP Posi - $100
Thnuder Racing "Complete Gear Package" - $400
http://www.thunderracing.com/index.c...ategoryid=1062

TOTAL: $500

I need help deciding! Thanks

-Rippin

why would you want a 2 series or why would it matter? it seems you're prepared to buy a gear set so buy one to fit the carrier

streetrcr ran his to mid 11's before it fragged, had well over 100 passes in the 11's on his stock rear before it let loose, you should be fine

i just redid my 7.5 rear. Bought an Auburn posi from reider racing for $315 and a solid spacer to replace the crush sleeve for $15. Got a set of Moser 28 spline axles from fbody motorsports for $270 shipped. I welded up the axle tubes for added strength. Had everything installed by a professional with all new bearings and seals for $150. Should be good to about 400hp now. Oh and mine is a 2 series carrier also. I just upgraded to 28 spline axles when i ordered it.


I like 2 series carriers better than 3 series because they require alot thicker gear...thicker means stronger !!!
