i have an lx and when i do burn outs both tires spin. just like they said above the only real difference is the body kit.

first off its QUIK not quick.
second LX had traction LOK unless its a 4 banger conversion or the clutches inside are worn out. they didnt put a single wheel in the 5.0 8.8 rears. they came with traction lok from the factory now if youre doint burnouts alot it will wear the clutches fast and cause you to have single peel.

So to pick this up, it's a difference of rear sway bar, different bumper, side cladding and a spoiler?
How tough is it to get the GT appearance for an LX? Cost, source? I am shopping for a 5.0 so I wanted to know a bit more.

Thanks,
Mark

No, both have the same sway bar. Everything is the same but the body kit.
