Default LSD

Im looking into a Limited Slip Diff i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on which one to get. I was thinking maybe Auburn Gear High Performance Limited Slip Differential or the Eaton 10 Bolt Posi Limited Slip Differential.

Thanks SilverGT. Ben I dont think they come with LSD's i think they come with open differential and traction control. When you lose traction the brakes slow the wheels down and thats supposed to be the LSD i think but when i burn out im only burning one tire... great LSD ford gj

GT's come with T-loc. It is a real weak posi set-up and typically wears out after 40,000miles with hard use. It can be rebuilt. If you are going to change out the diff, you might as well step up to 31 splines and a c-clip eliminator kit to make a very strong rear end.

AND Traction Control does NOT apply the brakes!!!! Traction control cuts fuel to reduce power to the rear wheels. If it applied brakes it would be called stability control.
