Thanks
It will be a wild goose chase. Most of the 12 bolts didn't have a posi factory in trucks. The trucks from I think 80 and up all had 10 bolt rears and the posi in them is not compatible with the 12 bolt and its also a turd. They are known as gov-bombs. Proper name is a gov lock but they tend to explode fairly easily especially when you thrash them. Your probably going to be stuck buying a new unit.
