I have been told by more than one guy that a S-10 axle is a good choice for a salt car because of the lower power loss in the ring and pinion. So after an extended 'Search and Seziure' mission in the local pick and pull , I scored one with posi and the ratio I wanted, Great , right ?
BUT, while reading the 'Bible', Verse 2 E, It says late model GM axles with C clip retainers , are NOT acceptable. Because of the possibility of breaking and loosing the axle.
SO, has anybody figured out how to get around this axle retainer issue ? It's going in a old pickup powered by a warmed over flathead, so the chances of breaking an axle because of excessive power , aint gonna happen !
Thanks .
