    I was perusing CL like normal. looking for things I don't need and came across an ad for a 9 inch pumpkin with posi for $125. The pics of the differential told me it was not a posi but there was something that caught my eye! I called and he still had it so I offered $100 and he said you bring it it's yours. So I pick it up tonight, bring it home and I get to do my happy dance!:bananaman::dancingpa::grpnanadance: Not only are the gears the ratio I have been looking for, 3.50, they are in beautiful condition and they are in this case........
