The posi additive is definitly needed for proper operation of the clutch packs. Putting it in should help it out.

My feeling is you will be real happy :cheers: after adding the additive and doing some 8's or a few hard right & left hand turns. Give it a couple of days to work in and :cheers: :cheers:

Even if the clonk will go away completely.. I will still be concerned about my rear end because I'm drag racing.. I'm planning to run again at Bradenton where I will probably pull mid 1.60's 60' times... I only hope that the rear end will survive that kind of punishment...
