I'm putting together a 4" X 4" ,360 Duster auto with an 8 3/4 and will be changing the axles to a BBP. So I'm thinking while I'm there, what about the sure grip? The clutch type rear seems to be the way to go with slicks, but I don't have one and I was wondering what is the next step up the ladder? What's your experience ?

That said, I think you'd do fine with a clutch style sure grip. Hell my cone style is working pretty well for me so far.

Thanks Steve

You know, you hear so many opinions about what you need, it's good to hear from a racer. Those are very nice times and I certainly would be happy with those numbers.

The clutch type "sure grip" is a Power-Lok. It's probably the best posi out there. The Eaton would be a close second, don't know it they make one for the 8 3/4 but I doubt it. The bad thing about cone style posi's is that you don't rebuild it, you throw it in the trash when it's worn out.

The Power-Lok is the ultimate for the 8 3/4, or just about anything else they make it for.
