I can get a mini-spool with a good gear for real cheap, would it be worth it. Those are locked 100% of the time so it would be pretty fun on the street turning corners at low speed lol

I'm wondering who's running them?

mini spools are not lockers, lockers rachet to let you go around corners. I have run spools in various things and I like them, but they are hard on axleshafts and tires. I don't recamend them in anything that has C-clips (like our 8.8's) because when your break an axle your wheel falls off, not cool. Just throw some new cluches in your posi, and shim it up a bit if you want it tight

I was running a Aubrun LSD in my car. It was fantastic for everyday driving around

So if I put on some c-clip eliminators and the mini-spool, it should be fine. This car won't see daily grind anyway only on nice dry days will it be used.

yeah, what is your reason for spooling it?

if you want a minspool, grab a extra carier you got kicking around and just make a Lincon locker, cheaper and stronger if done right.

then you can put your posi back in if you don't like it
