9bolt posi repair info
well I will give this a shot and see what you guys think. I had major major help with this so don't think I could have done this on my own.
I will have to use more than 3 pictures in this post so I hope the mods will leave this here until it is saved in the tech board. if some one can host the PDF file I will delete the pictures right away and save some space here.

88 350 tpi formula -- Ok, I'll finish the uploads ... if the moderators have trouble posting the PDF [only 400K] maybe I'll host it on Yahoo if anyone is interested.

Here's page 5 of 5 -- hey, a round of applause for 88 350 tpi formula, thanks to him we got to see some very complex stuff about 9-bolts that most of us never will dig into.

FYI the high-resolution tech file is hosted as a 400K PDF on the follow Duck-site:
http://www.geocities.com/luckyducky_...air30Nov04.pdf
Much better than the low-resolution images on the TGO pages.

interesting ... good find
i have a posi unit from a 87 roc with 3.27 gears. gonna swap that into my 2.77 rear in spring
i am not doing it. dont wanna mess with it.
i would like to make sure everything is ok and it wont break later on for some reason. I not sure of what condition its in either. but looks pretty solid.
this article helps me understand whats inside of it and how it all works. i just got to get an installation kit with new bearings and i should be set. i will run it and see how it works. Reider Racing was the install kit but no price. i got to call them up sometime soon.
any idea how much new install kit would cost? something like 80-120 bucks or so?

much thanks guys. no rear end shop around here really wants to touch a 9 bolt due to not having much experience in them. those helped a lot. now just off to find some 4.10 gears for this thing.

well, it looks like another good article will be lost and forgotten. makes me wonder why we even have a tech section when they won't keep things like this :huh:

Shoots, just report the thread as being too useful, just to get attention.

Thanks for the link, Ed...very nice work on the article.
I really don't understand why...unless they assumed they were rebuilding the posi, the gear setup is just like any other rearend so why be scared of it?
