Limited slip rear end?

Victor Estrella · Feb 24, 2012

Now, I'm just curious. What are the chances that my 73, f100 explorer, long bed,with a 360 ci; is a limited slip rear end? I'll get the number off the door tomorrow. :scratch:

I'm gonna go with 30% chance. Less if it's a 2by.

Crap shoot until you pop the cover

It will be a 9", cover is the diff. My bet is on slim chance.

Cover is the third member if you wanna get technical

Takes a bit more effort to take that cover off...

What about lifting the rear tires off the ground and spinning the wheels. I thought if you had limited slip the tires rotate in the same direction. You could have one person hold one side, and you rotate the other, should be some grabbing of the clutches.

It's a street ride so no biggie. I had a feeling it would be slim chance.

If you do it with the other person trying to hold, it will tell. (unless the clutch pack is totally blown... )
