Re: Got my new rear today! YAY
A posi rear spins both wheel at the same time vs spinning only one on a typical rear end.

Nope... Unless you have the G80 RPO code, you only have a pegleg. GU* codes show your ratio...

Re: Got my new rear today! YAY
If you have G80, yes, it's posi, gu6=3:42 ratio.... If you want to decode ALL your RPO codes, go to http://www.s10forum.com/rpo/
They have a nifty little rpo decoder.

Dig it... (granted, it's muddy and has some surface rust, easily taken care of!) Already have new discs and pads ready to go on..

Re: Got my new rear today! YAY
I thought factory skids plates meant it had one wheel peel.
All the sites I'm seeing while searching say G80 is limited slip

Re: Got my new rear today! YAY
Skid plates are standard on all of our trucks..Except the zr2 which have skid plates running all the way to the back.
Limited slip is POSI...
G80 AXLE POSITRACTION , LIMITED SLIP
