I was keeping this as a spare for the posi-pac, but I probably won't need it. I think it came out of a 73 or 74 so it should be a 2.93. I'm sure it's NOT a 3.15. This will be a PITA to put on a pallet & prepare for transport but it can be done.  Bear in mind that the axles are different lengths on a posi rear.  I know some of you guys have been looking for one of these for years & here it is. The housing could? be converted to fit a 70.  Please contact me directly at bobscads@comcast.net. Serious only!
Thanks, Bob

Bob,
The bottom line with the Cadillac Posi is that there are two drawbacks.
1. It is not meant for heavy duty use such as racing.
2. It is not rebuildable.
I started out looking for one and ended up using a Moser 9 inch grafted to my control arm and spring perch attachments.

Greg,
I appreciate your input & I'm sure you're correct. I was keeping it as a spare. In the past some people were wanting one but I wasn't ready to sell. I'm sure if someone was a serious dragster they'd go with what you have or a Ford 9". I'm offering this for the normal driver that wants this option.
Thanks, Bob

Hi Bob,

We live so close I should probably at least say hi.  I have a '75 Coupe that I put a '71 2.94 posi in.  It works well but has a little whine to it.  My car is a driver, I could be interested.
