limited slip doesn't limit slip anymore

**Matte** · 08-31-2002, 09:10 AM

I have an 8" limited slip rearend in my mustang but it doesn't limit slip like I want it any more. it rains today and I still get a spinning inner wheel if I floor it at turns [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_cry.gif[/img] More at right hand turns than left it feels like. I get 2 black worms straight forwad still though when dry. I had to Change clutches and disk in it a couple of years ago It didn't work when i bought it.
Is it worn out already??

Did you add friction modifier to it when you change the gear oil?,if not,THAT is what makes it slip...

I have used oil specificly for limited slip differentials. or so it said on the can.. is that enough?

Ford makes a friction modifier,specifically for limited slip clutch packs,smells like hell but makes the clutches slip just enough.
