na, i definitely wouldnt put nolathene in the trailing arms. they might wear out quicker than rubber.

i am getting another diff for powercruise, so i can give it hell, but i dont want to ruin my lsd

Apparently the Spools are the same as a locker. They lock your back wheel without 'give'. which means when u do U-Turns u get the annoying tyres screeching on the ground (due to the turning circles of each tyred etc.)... I dont see the advantages of a spool for a street car with less than 150rwkw... But each for their own... I'd go for a Tightend LSD...

$1k for new 3.9's and a full spool isnt too bad IF it includes

Brand new gears
brand new full spool
All new bearings and seals (ask for your old bearings back )
All assembaly/dissasembly from vehcile - drive in drive out.

If it doesn't include new bearings, no deal.
