FAQ
How does Eaton posi work?
The Eaton Posi unit, such as the popular model 19554, operates as a limited-slip differential designed to enhance traction and control. Inside the differential, the Eaton Posi uses a series of friction discs and preload springs. When torque is applied, these components engage, transferring power to both rear wheels for improved traction. This design allows the Eaton Posi to automatically provide additional power to the wheel with better grip, making it an effective solution for high-performance and off-road applications.
What is a posi unit?
A Posi unit, short for positraction, is a type of limited-slip differential designed to address traction challenges in rear-wheel-drive vehicles. The Eaton Posi unit, exemplified by model 19554, utilizes a gear-driven mechanism to distribute torque between the rear wheels. This helps prevent wheel spin, providing better traction and stability, particularly during acceleration and cornering. The Posi unit enhances overall performance and control in various driving conditions.
What is better Posi or limited slip?
The terms "Posi" and "limited slip" are often used interchangeably. In fact, a Posi unit, like the Eaton Posi 19554, is a type of limited-slip differential. Both Posi and limited-slip differentials aim to improve traction by distributing torque between the rear wheels. The Eaton Posi, with its proven design, offers excellent performance and is considered a reliable and effective choice for enthusiasts seeking enhanced traction and control.
Can you convert a rear end to posi?
Yes, it is possible to convert a rear end to a posi unit using aftermarket solutions like the Eaton Posi 19554. This conversion involves replacing the existing differential with a posi unit to enhance traction and provide the benefits of a limited-slip differential. The conversion process requires careful installation, and it's essential to choose a reputable and reliable product like the Eaton Posi for optimal performance and durability in your rear differential.
