Default Lock-up peg leg rear '88?

I'm thinking about locking up the rear in my '88 with a spool but am looking for any suggestions that anyone might have.
-Thanks

I think youd be better off putting a limited slip diff in rather than a "Mini spool"... Unless you plan on just raceing it and not driveing it on the street!....

Otherwise, For strip use...good call!


For street useage...not very wise....you may end up with it tearing up your suspension...and or breaking the mini spool... or both!

i would go with a posi rear than a fullspool unless it is just for the track. it will be hard togo around corners going vereus speeds.

That looks like a nice set up. It should work perfectly.

Cool, thanks guys. I appreciate your feedback. The car is mostly going to be a cruiser so I think the powertrax makes the most sense.

I've got an auburn 3.73 lsd here, shipping would suck but if you're interested let me know.

What size, how many miles and etc.? How much do you want for it? Also any idea how much it would be to ship to 19703?
-Thanks very much
