My problem is, while driving, the posi rear end in my 87 GN goes....
ping,ping,ping,ping,ping,ping,ping,ping, pretty loud, the pinging gets faster as I speed up.

I hope I dont need the whole thing, someone told me it sounds like the spider gear is going out.

If anyone has one please contact me!!!

Any info would be appriciated!!!

Thanks,

First off you don't have spider gears, unless you don't have a posi rear.

Only thing you can really do it pull off the cover (easy) and look, check for any pieces sitting in the bottom, look for broken teeth, and any metal in the oil.

I would think it would most likely be a broken ring gear tooth, and you SHOULD need to rebuild it and get a new gear set....This should be done by a professional as you have to get all of the clearances correct or the new set won't last long.
