Default G80... I Need One Quick!

I need a G80 differential, but am not having any luck finding one! Could anybody hook me up with one that they have for sale? It would be a big help! Thanks!

do a search for 8.5 locker or 8.5 posi etc. Most people dont call them G80. gov-lock is another term for them.

what you SHOULD get is a Detroit True Trac or an Eaton Posi. that is if you need it. i can't wait til my G80 blows up so i can get a true trac.

if you wait be prepared to buy gears also, sometimes their demise takes out other componets in the process
