86GT 93LX

do all foxbody stangs have a limited slip? like if u over power a 4 banger rearend with a 351 is that why both wheels spin?? my 93 lx was a 4 and it has a 3.73 stock rear non t-loc rear so im wondering if limited slip is differant from t-loc??

Either 85 or 86 and down have a 7.5 rear end. I'm not sure what 4 bangers have but am quite certain they are not as rugged as the 8.8 rear ends in the 87 and up fox's. First the right tire will spin then a clutch will engage causing the rear end to lock both tires. I think limited slip and traction lock mean the same.

all 7.5" rears in 86+ cars were non trac-lok... which IS a form of limited slip... so you have an open differential. What you SHOULD do is upgrade to a 8.8" rear... it bolt right in and you wont have to modify anything

all 4s have a 7.5" but most have 2:73 or worse gears, the last few years they had 3:73 because of the a4ld tranny having the extra gear, but none had posi/t-loc or what ever but i think limited slip is a differant deal but im not certain

i just told you that trac-lok and limited slip are the same thing... dont argue with me

haha theyre the same thing. t-lock, limited slip, posi, are basicly all synonyms. theres lots of ******** here that like to get all pissy if you call it posi, but theyre retarded.

i posted that the same time u did ur post showed up after i posted, anyway not arguing, i just wondered why they will lock up under lots of power if it doesnt have posi as i call it, t loc what ever i never use that term ist fords gay fancy term for posi, i know my car has no posi but i can roast both tires at once, well or should i say i could, i need a motor so im not worried about a 8.5" just yet

you might have an aftermarket diff in there already... becasue you should have 2.73's not 3.73's..... it sounds like someone did a turbo coupe rear swap
