Limited Slip questions

[BeauJ]

I've got a 2000 XLT AWD w/ 3:55 gears. I took my front driveshaft off earlier only to realize it's open, not limited slip like I thought. My question is how do I figure out what spline axles I have and how much would it could to get a limited slip put in? - Beau

31 spline. Pay for my plane ticket, I'll put them in.

No, I can do it myself, just not enough time. Workin 50+ hours a week, school and a girlfriend don't leave much free time.

My truck can only do SO much for me

your truck runs 9psi, the average human mouth can only go up to like 5psi. If you hook it up right the truck can

Got another question. After searching more, I saw that if you were open and not LS, then you can only use certain LS/Lockers. How do you know? I'm leaning towards the Auburn or the FMS one.

when you have an open you can either get a lunchbox locker to go inside your current carrier or buy a whole new locked carrier. some have a C-clip emilinator kit. Now if yu have a LS your only option is a full carrier

 

[BeauJ]

How much is a whole new locked carrier and what's involved?

 

[RangerX]

An LS is it's own carrier, and will replace your open carrier. If you go with an LS, go with an Auburn over a stock TracLok. I've had both.

My Ford Racing LSD is doing quiet well. I am very impressed with it. It was the whole carrier and everything.
