WTT (or buy) good 3.70 GM gears for good 3.36 GM gears
Title says it, I have a really nice set of OEM GM 3.70 gears that I intended to set up in my differential but decided I would really be happier with 3.36's. The 3.70s are take-outs from Ikerds. They keep all the best sets from their rebuilds, this is one of those sets that I bought because I wanted GM gears. Looking for good OEM GM 3.36 set to trade that is still in good shape with no rust/pitting/chipped teeth/excessive wear/etc.
Conversely if you have a good set of 3.36 OEM GM gears for sale I might be interested in just purchasing them as well.
thanks

Hi Hib
Do you still have the 3:36 gears. At you can see I can use them
Hello, Bonjour, and Good Afternoon,
Day 6 I thought you would be tired of looking at my car's rear end.

Well I found the problem. Failed bearing of pinion gear or Posi Unit its self. The pinion gear was able to move forward hitting Posi causing damage and pieces breaking off.
The fact that I was only going 10 mph saved my car from extensive damage had it let go at 70 mph. Nothing left to do but replace the unit. I will be looking to put a 3:36 in instead of the current 3:70 which is more inline with my high speed driving on highways in the US and Europe.
Thanks for coming along. I will keep you posted on further work on car as I put it back together.
