: There was an article in Hot Rod magazine in the late 70's or early 80's that showed how to make a posi rear end out of an open rearend. All you had to do was add an extra spacer shim in the differential. I remember splitting open the differential of my 69 Mustang and adding the extra shim. It literally made the rear end into a mini-spool. When you went around a corner, the rear end would lope and slide. But it definately worked and it only cost $1.98 for the shim.
