What could be the cause of this. I noticed mines starting to do it alot more lately. Its just i feel like a sixer when i turn a coner and give it a little and it just smokes this inside tire.

 

It could be any number of things, but a possibility is the clutches in the diff. I had to have mine looked at for making noise and the ford guy said they were common.

 

Bad diff clutch probably. As for the cause of this, have you been leaking gear oil?

 

not that i can tell. the bottom does have a stain of were gear oil could be leaking but dont they all have a little stain?

 

Not really. If you are losing gear oil, even a little then that could be causing extra friction in the clutch plates or even overheating the diff could be the problem.

 

how do i tell if its full or not?

 

Is it doing this in a straight line?

 

stick a little pipe cleaner into the fill plug , if that pumpkin is bone dry there wont be much on it

 

well it depends some times it will do it in a straight line but thats only if there is a little bit of dirt on the road or something else that will make it loose traction easily. but it will do it almost every time i want to power slide it around a turn.

 

your clutches are most likey getting worn, same thing used to happen to me on right-hand turns. how many miles do you haveon your car?

if you have a lot of miles, you can buy a little time by changing the fluid and using as little friction modifier as you can to avoid binding and popping. i did this and now i spin both wheels again
