$100 Trac-Lok Limited-Slip Rebuild
Found this diy!
Clutch kit ordered.
Any tips or tricks 2 know bout?
Thanks all!

 

Will post upon teardown!
It's gotta be easier thas setting up a gear.
1 AMC 20, in my 70 rebel, 3:15, went to a posi carrier, complete drop in, no problem!
1 AMC 20 in my 72 matador, went from 2:87 to 3:55s, a nightmare, apart 6-7 times to get pattern right.
1 GM 12 bolt in my 401, 500+HP gremlin, went from 3:23 to, 3:73, apart twice, dead on!
This looks easy on diy post?
Thanks all.

 

Most likely you have the TracLock. The model 20 will have a TracLock as well. The GM 12 bolt will be an Eaton if it is in a car. It will be an Eaton if in a truck up through '72. The square body trucks would have a GovLock. That's probably NOT what you have unless it is broken engaged. Which happened to one I was running for awhile. Once again, the assumption is you have OEM limited slips and not some aftermarket solution.

As you can see from the other posts, the TracLock doesn't have a great reputation for durability, but they do work pretty well if muddy slick track is your terrain of choice. They are fairly easy to rebuild and fairly inexpensive to rebuild as well. That's what I would do if I ran around on the street and I had it already.

The Dana 44 has them shims between the carrier bearings and the carrier so there is nothing to adjusts. Remove the carrier, remove the ring gear. Replace the clutch plates and Belleville washers. Re-attach ring gear and put assembly back in the housing.
