t-loc and traction control systems

a silly question i know, but just making sure that having the TC system will not be hindering the addition of a t-loc.
thanks guys

05, and 06 GT have both, and you can always turn off tracion control which seems useless anyways, my wheels spin regardles..

RE: t-loc and traction control systems

so if i understand correctly, when the TCS is on, the t-loc is redundant?
and when the TCS is off, then the T-LOC is in operation.
thanks guys

Absolutely NOT! They are two ccompletely seperate and different things... Track-lock is simply a mechincal device that distributes power to both back wheels... The TCS however monitors the car for wheel spin and if the computer things the tires are spinning it will reduce the motors power... it will feel like your car is bogging...
