The GM Posi in these things are notorious pieces of shit. New Posi is only
$400 (or less) from the dealer, and used can be had from a friend who's the
driveline specialist at the local dealer ("Hey... why throw this part
away... just because I'm replacing a bent axle under warranty...") for $200
or less.
So how come a Sprite LSD is $1000? Hmmm? Must be bulletproof...
