    More pics for referance, Trac-loc on the left and pwr-loc on the right Yes, they do make great book ends. BTW, Dana 80's after 1997 had 4 pinion trac-loc posi's. Dont confuse them with the pwr-loc. You can tell them apart by the cross pin, all pwr-loc's have 2 flats forming a V on the cross pin

    That's amazing being that 1992 was the first year for the nv4500...........

    NV4500 to NP208?

    Iirc the counter shafts are one piece, therefore preventing ratio changes. I may be wrong though.

    What limited slip are you planing on running? Dont put a powr-loc up there if you gonna be on the street. P.S., pinion depth on danas are aas easy as it gets if you are using dana gears. If you know how to read the pinions it tells you what to do;)

    True or Not True?

    That thicker metal is why the 6.2 feels slow, its not that the engine dosnt make tons of power but the truck is just that much heavier, there for slowing it down. They put the 4.56's in to help with this, but the 1009's had thinner metal & 3.08 gears so they would be fast..........:cookoo:

    Wow I can break the speed limit now!

    OP, judging by your handle (1031), you should have a posi (trac-loc) up front, keep that in mind when you are looking for the carrier. You will probly find one with either 16 or 30 splines. You can swap the spider gears from your original (35 spline) but it can be a paine, give yourself plenty...

    Switching the Spring Perch

    Looks plausable, I would give it a shot but too much CASTER (i think thats what you ment) will become harder to steer.
