While it is in the air, right? The power also goes that way first because of the rotation of the pinion forcing it that way. If you have the brakes applied and it is still turning, you will need to adjust them for sure.

I have a posi now, but when I had the open it would spin until I let the gas off! It would also wheel hop so hard it would knock the trim rings off of the stock rally wheels. It still spins pretty hard, and with the stick I can do it whenever I want. Glad to see you got it running, have fun and watch out for the law!

I work at a Differential/Transmission/Driveline parts place part time. I changed from a 3.08 to a 3.73 and went to a posi. Changing gears is one of the best performance mods you can do. Going from a 3.08 to a 3.73 is almost the same as adding 20% more torque because it multiplies it that much more. I have seen cars that run mid 15\'s with 2.73\'s drop a full second in the 1/4 by going to 3.73\'s.
