That's true if someone didn't install a Cone type unit. So, wannadrag, which do you have? The cone unit is totally different from the plate unit but rrunner is right but this stuff is pretty old now and it's hard to find one that someone hasn't had their hands in at some point in time....
That's right. Broken or chipped spiders are common when the unit wears to the point it becomes a non working unit...ie, single track and people keep on nailing them working the crap out of the spiders. They are not made to take the abuse that a non limited slip unit is designed to take but even a non limited slip unit will give up after so much. I don't think I have any extras laying around but I'll take a look and if I have some, I'll post it.
Whats the difference between cone and clutch type? I have mine out right now its a 742 case it has one small opening where you can see the spider gears and it has springs in it for the posi part. Does it still have clutches? It also doesnt have the little "buttons" in the middle for the axle thrust. It has a solid piece of steel that rides between the axles? Is that right? I took it out cause it was loud as hell and the ring and pinion is worn down the pinion gear has chips out of it and it looks like somebody had it set all wrong but its to late now. My buddy is gonna loan me his for now and his takes the "buttons" in between the axles. I guess Im more worried about what I actually have. Help!
