Question MY rear end is soft!!!!

Hi One and All I am wanting to put o limited slip into my AU3 fairmont, cause it doesnt have one! Is it just a matter of replacing the centre and axles or should i replace the whole rear end housing etc???? Awesome display of Custom cars at the Rockhampton Motor Show today.

If your rear end is soft...I would suggest some butt exercises.

Just get the centre out of a xr or similar model with the diff ratio you want. A mate of mine got a centre out of a gt for his ea. He took it to some guy in park st (glenmore rd end) who has a dodgy little workshop. He knows his stuff but so don't be worried by the look of the place. He hooked him up with some axles for about $110 and fitted it for him. He was by far the cheapest, I think it only cost him around $500 all up.

pm me if you want some more info.

Thanks to all people who responded, so what am going to do is take woodsy's advice cause he is from up my way and do as many bum squats as i can. : : :
