What are your thoughts on running a spool vs getting a new posi? Spools are a lot cheaper then a good posi unit. Anyone running one, how do you like it? Also this is not a dd so if I sacrafice some street-ability dont really care.

Daily driver or not if you plan on turning or for that matter making a U turn ever a spool isn't the way to go. You can acheive the same result with a good posi unit and be able to turn the car withot the rear hopping all over the place. If it's a trailor queen and only for the 1/4 mile than go for it. Otherwise spend the money and be happy with ur car's turning

Spool on the street is not fun.
