more power to one wheel?
do the 1999 gt's have more power to the right wheel or something? Whenever i do a burnout, it only makes the tire mark on the right and recently whenever i floor it the back end of my car fishtails to the right....thanks for any help

You probably ****ed up your car. The alignment of the back wheels is probably gone from burning out or something.
I really have no clue though. I doubt any car would have more power to one wheel.

The Trac-Lock (Fords incarnation of the Posi Track)is a clutch type differential.When you start doing one legged burnouts the clutches in the diff are worn out.They can be rebuilt though. Go to www.howstuffworks.com they have good articles on just about everything.

Your limited slip differential is worn out. But even if it wasent you will always spin the right wheel easier than the left. Because lets say your looking from the back of your car, the driveshaft is turning counter-clockwise so its trying to lift up the right side of the axle and push down the left side. So your right wheel is going to break free alot easier than the left. This is very noticable if your trying to do doughnuts, its alot easier doing doughnuts by spinning towards the passenger side than it is the driver side because of how the axle is twisting. You should be able two burn both tires, all GT's came with posi, but yours must of worn out. You can try putting some friction material in your differential, its a liquid that helps the clutchs grab, I have never used it but I have heard about it.

you can get something like this to rebuild your differential, or you can just buy the friction additive that is included in that kit, somewhere.

Check the tire pressure..seriously. When i used to burn out, only 1 wheel spun, then i checked my pressure and the tire that wasnt spinning had about 20 psi under the other tire..i matched there psi, and now they both light up.
