Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!

Yeah, took a look there but I did not see anything in the west Michigan area that met the specs that I am looking for. Mostly older stuff with a posi rear instead of an open diff.
why would u want another open differential instead of a one with posi?
I am planning on installing a powertrax locker into the rear end and it can not be installed into a posi diff.
My axle still has some damage on it from the original acident and drum brakes prompting me to get a new axle. I would have thought that they would be fairly common with most people upgrading to posi.
i don;t think your going to like that locker a whole lot on the street
I run a locker and I have no issues at all.
I have a rear in my garage that I would sell ya but it's not an open carrier.
Need's to be rebuilt & it's apart so it would be perfect.

I drove mine all over.
I bet I put over 2000 miles on it last year.
I do high-way with it too.

hmm when i was ordering stuff for my 9 inch they told me to stay away from a locker if i drive it on the street alot
I have heard that a lot of lockers will make a bang noise, like a .22 gun going off, when going around turns. The powertrax locker has a lot of good reviews for not being as noisy. Most people have discribed it as a sound similar to a racheting action, that is if you even hear it at all.
Dave, if you cannot find one you like, I have a posi rear waiting to go on my car which would free up the rear axle off my bird.
I'll keep you in mind. When do you think you will have your swap done?
The reason I am asking is because my axle is so bad right now that I do not feel confortable driving it around in the condition that it is in. Hence the reason I am trying to find one as soon as possible.
The main issue with a locker, is that they unlock over 20mph. That gives you an open differential at 20+mph. It would be very easy to just blow the one tire loose at that speed.
