thank you for all info :)
Last may we had a flood In Nashville and sadly my house flooded to.
My cars flooded to .caddy was gone and Saturn to
so i went to auction with a friend and we arrived late. i saw Explorer it was third last car on the auction.
so i bought it.
one more...
i have it about 8 months it runs great. i drove about 15K miles no issues
we had few snow days down here in Nashville .and it goes past any icy hill.
its like Tank :)
just did it.
first i did passenger side . wheel spins without any problems
i did driver side it spins but there was some resistance.
it spins a little and resisted a little and so on
i raised rear end and again other wheel spins in opposite direction
Do I have Open or Limited slip Diff?
Label on drivers door is missing
when i raised rear end off the ground and spin one wheel with the car in neutral , wheel on the other side o spins in the opposite directions
just like Open Diff.
i got Big hitch receiver
and label on diff itself say 3L73...
All u got to do is
put it in 2wd ,hold a brake with ur left foot , and floor it with ur right
Soonit starts to spin turn a wheel , and u got instant power slide
No supercharger needed.
