In my opinion a spool is a bad choice. They are downright annoying to drive on the street. Sure you like the er er er er er around slow corners at first, but it gets old quick.
I personally ditched the spool and went with a 31 spline diff. from an Explorer. It's just a heavy duty Traction-lock. Eaton also makes a really nice diff, as well as the Auburn Pro. I think you can check out Eaton at www.Eatonposi.com ------------------ 1988 Mustang GT 12.0 @ 121 on radials S-trim Vortech sitting in a box! |

"31 spline diff. from an Explorer..."
I'm going to have to pick one of those up some day... Which year models have those and will the 31 spline axles from the Explorer fit in our 80's model 8.8? |
