    I was just looking into rear ends because thats the next thing i need to buy for the car. Just curious.... Do you think a 9 inch or an s60 to be a better rear end for the car. And any info on where to get the best price on purchasing it?? Thanks

    lockers are stronger but not quite as comfortable for the street as a posi
    i think it is really up to what you are going to do with it
    if it is being set up to race more than to drive daily go with a locker if it is always a daily driver you might want a posi because the lockers tend to be a little noisier
    if it is straight drag you might want to save your money and just get a spool

    me myself i would say a locker for a street and strip machine because a little noise aint gonna kill me at all
    and they arent really noisy they just make a clicking sound when your turning which i wont hear over my loudmouths anyway
