junkyard posi

Im gonna be going to the yard soon to try and get a few more items I still need, t5 inspection cover, VSS if i can find one (doubt i will, will have to find the part #'s again and order one i figure), new gears
torque arm mount?? im still unsure if thats a unique peice or the 700r4 one is the same

is it worth grabbing a posi unit if I can find one? Im under the impression they will simply all be burned out at this point, and I dont know which ones if any are rebuildable or what.. but I cant afford no $400+ unit right now

if its not worth looking for a used posi, then ill likely just grab a 3.42 or 3.23 open diff, since that will be easy to find

Axle/Gears: what ever stock is
if i remember correctly, all v6 models or at least most come with 3.42 gears. i've been told that if you pull the cover off, as long as there's not chunky sh*t in the housing, that it should be good. id do it.. you could probably get it for about 50 bucks.

Torque arm mounts differ from the T-5, to the 700R4. You'll have to get the correct one.
