Rebuild of Posi-Unit

[attret00]

Hey guys, another problem. In rebuilding the rear in my '64 , I've been told to rebuild the posi-unit at the same time. I was told to look for a rebuild kit to replace the clutches. I can't find this anywhere. Am I using the correct terms and do you know who sells them? Help me if you can. ;help ;help

63's and 64's originally used a Dana Posi unit, and nobody has made parts for those Dana units for many years (which had design weaknesses, and was replaced in '65 by the Eaton posi unit). Most of them have been replaced over the years with the later Eaton posi, which can be rebuilt by any competent rear end shop.
