Got the rear end pulled out last night. Going to pressure wash it after I get the frame home this evening.

I wasn't planning on doing anything besides cleaning it up right now, well maybe except for a disc brake swap since I gave my uncle all the drum brake parts for his 41' chevy truck. I want to find a 12 bolt with a posi to put in but I haven't see one for sale around here for a while.

A few mods on a 10 bolt and it can be as good or better then 12 bolt.

Well I really want a posi but I've never messed with anything like that before. What else can you do beside better axles or different gears?

Eaton-Makes a clutch Posi Unit -Heavy Duty Differential GM 8.2" 10-Bolt Chevy Posi Unit - 28 Spline - Posi Traction. Plus the gears and axles and you are set. Should handle any horsepower you have.

I used the Eaton pro-series posi, Richmond gears and bearings and a C Clip eliminator kit.
