JRE Posi Mod Questions!
Hey I had a few questions on this. Can I do just the posi mod? Do I need a tune if I dont replace the gears? Will this affect warranty? These might be stupid questions but i want to be informed as well as possible. Any help on the subject would be great! Thanks!
TMoneySS (Taylor) P.S. Yes i did but didnt find the answers i was looking for! |

Can you just do the posi mod? Are you asking if you can add this to the stock gears? If so, than yes. You will NOT need a tune if you don't replace the gears. Technically, yes, you will have voided some portion of the warranty but the chance of them actually seeing this done is very slim. Most likely you will be fine. |

Yes, it's an easy install and the instructions are simple. No you will not need a tune. If you're not going yo change the gears while you're in there, BE SURE TO MARK THE RING AND PINION such that when you place the differential back into the case, the teeth mesh/mate together as they were originally. If you don't do this, there is a chance you could end up with a whining rear end. |

Thanks guys! i will probably have a speed shop do the install while they are doing my bushing etc. Also what about the JRE billet caps, any opinions on those? Also what does this mod all entail doing?

Personally I don't think the billet caps offer much additional strength.

I did the caps and the stock ones are bad for the flexing that causes a lot of people blowing up gears..the billet caps fix this problem...

If the carrier is shimmed correctly, installed using a case spreader, and the cap bolts are installed with loctite and torqued to spec, the billet caps are unnecessary IMO. |
