    Have this 1958 GM axle in my 1934 Ford truck and to much wheel slip on 1/8 mile drag strip, otherwise works very well. Anybody out there, who can say what is good locking for this axle and where I can buy this? DSC_1161.JPG DSC_1164.JPG InkedDSC_1163_LI.jpg 20190701_154146.jpg
    Thanks!

    I was lucky enough to find a stock GM take out posi carrier on *b*y. Swapped out my ring gear and put it in my stock case. I had to shorten my stock axles slightly.

    If your installing a posi in a none P case you will have to do some clearance work inside the case.
