| Post subject: | posi rear for 85 d100 |
I want to put a posi rear in my 85 D-100. I would like to get one from a junk yard. Is their a way to tell just by looking if a rear is a posi or not. If I get the complete rear with axels and wheels. What years pick ups would be a straight bolt on job? Older or newer model years. I figure 1980 to 1986 or 87 should be the same. But what about other years |

85 and up the wheel bolt pattern is larger than pre 85 but you can change axles brake backingplate and drums... i have 85 rear in my 82 with 82 backingplate brakes and axles....you can also just change carrier |

AHEM!We prefer to call that a "sure-grip" or "limited slip differential" (generic term) here! "Posi" or "positraction" is a shivvy term and will not be tolerated!   D/W, Self-appointed Word Police Officer

Interesting !!!  I have a 1980 or 81 axle in my 1987 truck. (swapped out that 3.23 geared axle for a 3.55). I had to swap the '87 axles and brakes onto the early axle. Works grreeeaattt.Any chance you still have the '85 axles and brakes? If yes, I suppose you are very far away from me because I want them. |
