[QUOTE="Toasty, post: 5365925, member: 39823"] My installer packed my posi with a couple of extra friction plates when he rebuilt the posi and installed my gears. He indicated a 500k (~350mi) of 'taking it easy, especially around corners. After the 500k limit, he had the car back in his shop, changed the fluid, checked the posi 'preload', and the backlash (part of the initial cost). My gears are whine free and my posi is very tight. If you have your diff rebuilt like I did, the new bearings will take a bit of time to break in, just like in a new engine. Anyone who says that a metal on metal piece of machinery needs no break in period is a little off... [/QUOTE]
