New LSD/Wavetrac

Look's like Quaife has some competition. This unit come with a 36,000 mi. warranty too. I'm trying to figure out if I need to upgrade my halfs and if the stock Dr shaft will work with this unit.

It says limited slip but it kinda sounds like the pos-traction rears on GM cars... Would be cool to find someone that's already installed one.

I watched a guy last month trying to back his Trans Am out of a parking lot in snow and every time he hit the accelerator his rear end would just slide over because of the posi. He actually had to go inside and find the person that owned the car next to him and ask them to move the car so he could have more room to "slide" out of the spot.

If you decide to buy that your in good hands with Bob at Moe's. I have bought from him before and he is stand up guy.

thats how all limited slips are, same as the dodge track-lock. they say "track-lock" or "posi-track" but they are all clutch pack limited slips, not true posi. in a true posi your tires are still locked even with no power imput at low speeds. i had the dodge track-lock in my truck before i went to the powertrax locker. in the winter driving my truck to work is just like one giant powerslide from home to work. lol. you definitely don't park next to other cars when you have to go up hill to get out. i have videos from when i got stuck one time before i put my snow tires on for the season. in half an inch of snow on level ground the truck wouldn't move. i left it in drive and got out and video taped the tires spining at idle in gear with no one in the truck. lol.

Well the lsd is only the tip of the ice berg. Theres half shafts, too. The r/t's have better halfs than the srt does. The chally has 225mm I think. SRT has 215mm. Then I think you need a different drive shaft to match the new bolt pattern on the lsd. Or maybe swipe the yoke from the chally to retain the stock one.

now your mixing wave tracks up with the getrag swap, which is a whole different story than just swapping in a wave track.

what you just posted also only applies on the 09 r/t's vs. 06-08 SRT's. the older SRT half shafts are much better than the R/T half shafts up till the 09 diff. the newer diffs have more splines too so you would need the r/t hubs, and driveshaft yoke since they are a 3 bolt.

Yeah, figures. I'm just trying to get this plan together for when I snap my axles,lol.
Not really. I'm hoping that with the pwr adder and heavier rims with wider tires that I can launch quicker and reach 60' time faster. Then, warp factor 5 Mr. Scott.
