POS rear end

[blindboy2k1]

oooook .... so im pretty mad ... i just bought my car about 3 months ago .... put about 4000 miles on it ... and today i went out to take some pictures , i was driving normal , not hard at ALL! was going around a corner and i hear my rear end clunking and snapping , pull over to see that the top of my diff housing is cracked and thier is gear oil all over ... i just got it towed back to my house and im going to start tearing the biatch apart ... any recommendations ? BTW its the Auburn high torque stupid stock ss rear end

That's why I have a Strange 12 bolt w/4:11's

[blindboy2k1]

how do u like the 4:11s ?

[Too Fast]

Man............no noises before at all, eh? Mine has never made a noise, it is stock torsen. This makes me worry. Now I have 66,666 miles on my car today.

Luv 'em........just had to get used to shifting a little faster

Dont throw any money at fixing that POS 10-bolt. Get a Moser or Strange 12 bolt or 9 inch and you wont ever have to worry about your rear-end.

it made slight noises once and a while .... i just hit 80,000 on the clock , i probly did one burn out , but other then that , i dident abuse the thing ... it blew when i was turning a corner at about 20 mph ... i found a guy over by Sac who has a stock 10 bolt for 490 . so tomaro morning im just going to drive out thier , i would LOVE to but a 12 bolt , but i do not have the money , i just dumped 1400 on exuast and tires, so im going to have to go with another crappy stockie

I would still much rather have an iffy differential that *may* go out and then spend the $2k then have to spend $2k for a strong engine.

[blindboy2k1]

yea , like i said , i would love to have a 12 , i guess later on in life when i have more money to be throwing around , i will buy one .....
just a scary picture for all u SS owners

[Too Fast]

You mean a scary sight for all us F-body owners.

Thanks for correcting me , haha

[Jays00ss]

what ever you do do not waste your money on the pathetic 10 bolt. Rule of thumb is upgrade don't rebuild. Get a new 9".

[The_Wretched]

where do you get those?

i've trying to find prices on those 9" Ford ones people recommend for 6M...

[02blkws6]

If you were close to me, I'd give you a rear housing for FREE.

I Know Its A Waste But I Put An Eaton Posi Unit In Mine With Some Axles And A Ta Stud Girdle Kit Its Holdin Up For Now I Need A 12 Bolt My 4.10s Make Some Wining Noises

[blindboy2k1]

got my old rear end out today , spider gears just grenaded , it was a big mess in thier ... and i got a nice plesent suprise when i saw that i have a aluminum drive shaft, allways a nice pleasant surprise!

[bluefields88]

ya, the SS's have aluminum drive shafts. How much did you guys spend on your 12 bolts? I'm really worried that my rear might go out and I wont have enough to buy a better rear end. I don't want to be stuck in blind's position. I'm an upgrader more than a replacer.
