Hey guys, i was taking off from a stop and gave it a quick stab on the pedal when... BOOM!! i hear a loud bang and i quickly pull over but nothing is hanging or leaking. So i drive home slowly and pull in my back yard and then try to move and it just spins! I had to use 4x4 to move . IS MY G 80 HISTORY?? if so what should i replace it with?? This sucks!! thanks for help and opinions!! -TIM
Auburn Performance limited slip diff. :thumb: If you have the coin available, try out their new ECT electronic locker. 4wheelparts.com has all the diffs they carry on sale and will beat any other web site's price and they are running discounts on their lockers this month. Also, $100 off on installation costs if you're near one of their stores.

better take the rear cover off to check for brokens, dont want to eat up a set of gears.
Thanks for the advice guys!! i have to check that out. how do you guys like the EATON POSI?
Well, i called around and got a good deal on a Dertoit True trac posi. I hope i made a good choice. Looks like i was forced into my next mod! BTW i was told eaton and detriot are part of the same company??.
Ouch! I've heard nothing but good about the Detroit locker. Don't think you could go wrong with either the Eaton, Auburn or Detroit.
Eaton bought Detroit or other way around.
:rofl:
glad to see i'm not the only cursed one! Sucks, but at least it wasn't me this time. :laugh:
Whatever the reason, buying stuff is the fun part. I'm happier researching stuff than actually having it. Once I get it, it's like...oh well, whats next? :nutz:

I think you'll be happy with you choice. I've had mine for a few months now and like it better than any posi that I've owned before, aftermarket or factory.
