    $40 mini spool and replacement gear lube:cool:

    But this isn't a very safe way to do a street car. Be better to go with a $350 limited slip unit.

    i spent a lot of money on a posi unit in my fairlane and still could not get a good burnout. had the unit rebuilt and still could not do it properly. i'd spend the money and get a new unit if possible. i'm also not a fan of mini spools on the street. :)

    I guess this "technically" isn't on the "street" (roadside rest stop)
