had a hard time getting both wheels to do a burn out on sunday. this also happened when i let someone borrow my car for the bracket finals and he went out 1st round. i really dont have any money for a locker so i was thinking mini spool because its something i think i could do myself. i dont know what unit i have in my rear either. i cant tell one from another what should i do?  i did manage to run a bunch of 6.30s capped up, when i opened the cutouts it went to blowing off the tires

put a spool in it and be done! i agonized over which type of posi, and finally went with a spool. i am VERY happy. it's obvious in parking lots and so on, but for worry free "motoring", nuttin' beats a full spool.
for what is the good life if not doing things thoughtfully?

Yep, time for a spool. You already have aftermarket axles I assume, put one in and be done with it.

i was thinking the same thing but the people i know agonize over setting up a dana. then there is the different carriers that i have no idea what to buy. thats why im thinking just putting a mini spool in it. but i dont know if its durable enough
for example, me and elvis both have 4.10s in our dana's. he wanted a set of 3.55s to run a radial class event so i said i have them and i will send them to you. they didnt fit his carrier, why, i have no clue. the 3.55s came out of my car. its just not something i have experience with

time to call dr diff. i wouldn't even consider a mini spool- scary.

Another one of those decisions that seperates a street car from a race car.

The factory '68 B-body Dana in my wife's '70 Barracuda has 23 spline axles if I remember correctly.
