I am sick of my 3.08 and open diff. I gotta upgrade. First off what is better, a complete rear end off a z28 or a differential and gears and let someone install it? Secondly, all the complete rears i have found are 600-800 and i would have to change the brakes over and all of that stuff. I think it would be easier to just get the differential and gears and let someone do it but then if they arent just right i am gonna have problems. Anyways what should i do and does anyone know where i can get a complete rear end cheaper than 600-800?

In my opinion it would be best to find a used rear end of a z28 or something. You can upgrade your gears, get posi and rear disc brakes in one shot. your going to actually pay more for all of them seperate. Not to mention if you got used gears and put them on your rear end then they will whine. Either way you will have to reprogram your mileage and speedo which is also expensive if you buy the software.2002 Firebird Y87 & W68, A4, Magnaflow Exhaust, Whisper lid, K&N, 3.42 gears, LSD<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/770634/1\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/770634/1</a> -
i went from 3.08 to 3.42 and love it..i saw a full 1/2 second from it and love the extra traction..i would definitely recommend it to you because a 15.3 on the factory open 3.08 is not bad at all!<b>12 SECOND DUAL STAGE DRY NITROUS POWERED 98 A4 V6 CAMARO<br /><a href=\"http://www.mysickcamaro.50megs.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.MySickCamaro.50megs.com</a><br />Best ET: 12.82@103<br />Best MPH: 104.7<br />Best 60\': 1.75 - Stock TC</b><br /> </font><blockquote><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">quote:</font><hr /><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Originally posted by Shodown:<br /><strong>1DV6 runs 12\'s...enough said. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Comment

I found a couple of rear ends on ebay but they were off of a 2001 and a 2002. Will these work on my 96 camaro?1996 Camaro -- SLP CAI, Motorvator TB spacer, MSD 8.5 mm wires, 180 thermostat, Pacesetter headers, Catco 3 in cat, TSP Rumbler, custom painted interior, 18x9.5 Z06 replica wheels, Nexen N3000 265/35r18 tires, - Best 1/4 mile 15.3@89mphComment

Stick with a pre-98 rear. And of course do a search in here and Suspension for all the info you need.Matt

Well i just found me a rear. Its out of a 94 trans am for $250 plus shipping. I will probably order it tomorrow, now all i have to worry about is switching out the brakes.1996 Camaro -- SLP CAI, Motorvator TB spacer, MSD 8.5 mm wires, 180 thermostat, Pacesetter headers, Catco 3 in cat, TSP Rumbler, custom painted interior, 18x9.5 Z06 replica wheels, Nexen N3000 265/35r18 tires, - Best 1/4 mile 15.3@89mphComment

a 98+ will work, and you won't have to worry about switching the brakes because it already comes with disc brakes. (I'm assuming by switching the brakes you mean going from drum to disc).<b><a href=\"http://members.cox.net/95batmobile/d86f.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Sinister Six</a> </b><br /><br />1998 Sport Metallic Gold Firebird A4:<br /><br />Whisper Lid, 5% Limo Tint, 30th Anniversary Side Stripes, 3\" Borla Catback Dual Exhaust, Man Fan Switch, SLP CAI<br /> <a href=\"http://members.cardomain.com/98goldbird\" target=\"_blank\">http://members.cardomain.com/98goldbird</a>Comment
