Do you have a whole bunch of power under your hood? Are you only spinning one wheel on those burnouts? Hagerty’s Davin Reckow is here to help you solve all your one-wheel peel problems. Our 1969 Chevy Camaro SS just got a freshly rebuilt, modestly hot-rodded engine, and it’s in serious need of a lower gear and some Positraction goodness. Davin goes step-by-step to show you how to swap out your rear end with a burnout-approved limited-slip differential.

Love the longer videos! Keep em coming!
I've done it in a carport before and it wasn't fun. Crush sleeve eliminators make it a lot easier to set the preload on the pinion, especially if you're on your back. Love my Detroit Locker.
*warning* Max temp for heating a bearing is 250F!!! over that and you are destroying your temper . Google it .
I’m curious if you checked the housing temperature around the pinion bearings after run in. I have recently rebuilt an old ford banjo rear axle and it sounds good. However the housing around the pinion bearings is warm enough that it gets uncomfortable to hold onto with a bare hand. Warmest temperature measured with a non contact I/R gun was 133 F. New bearings where used and preloaded to 21 inch lbs. I have been trying to decide if I should tear it down again or run it.
Best video on this subject I've seen
Watching you is like watching an artist. You should be teaching somewhere. All that said….why don't you use battery or air tools????
Well done!
So detailed! I enjoyed the video a lot, please keep the great work guys.
Very nice video guys.
One wheel peel, I'II try to remember that one very cool.
