Yes, General Motors offered limited-slip differentials, commonly referred to as "Positraction" or "posi," in some 1998 4x4 models. The availability of these differentials typically depended on the specific model and optional packages chosen. For instance, many Chevrolet and GMC trucks and SUVs from that year had the option for a limited-slip rear differential to enhance traction in off-road or slippery conditions.
There isn't any sort of posi traction/ limited slip system in the rear axle.
It does not have any sort of limited slip devise in the axle. It does have electronic traction control that uses the brakes to control wheel spin.
any information on jeep 4x4s can be found on the internet from people who have had one or people who just know about them or in a manual or handbook .
Take off pumkin cover, on center pin in the diff there is a bolt on the botton of the bigger opening that holds pin in place, take the bolt out of the pin and tap the pin out. You have to tap out one side to get out one gear, then tap the pin back through and do the same thing for the other gear. Once you get the upper and lower gears out there are C clips that you have to take out so you can slide the axles out at the two middle gears will pop out. If you have any questions call me at 435-820-5242. and i will help you the best I can. GOOD LUCK.... He forgot to ask you if is posi or limited slip or one wheel wonder,you can not do this if it is posi or limited slip(clutch type).
YES, both tires must be the same size on the same axle, be it posi-trac or non posi-trac. Never, ever, mix sizes on any axle.
All Trans Ams through 81 come with a posi rear. It was part of the T/A package. It may be high gears, but it'll be a posi.
They can come either with the limited slip or a open differential. If you cant find any of the original paper work there are two ways to find out. One is to take the VIN number to a dealer and ask them if it does. Another way is to place one rear wheel in a way so that it doesnt have any traction at all. If it has an open differential it will just spin and the Jeep will not move forward. The limited slip will give some traction to the other wheel and Jeep will creep forward. Good Luck.
if it is AWD (all-wheel drive) it has limited slip diff^^^Above answer is bad information:Most Subarus do not have a rear limited slip differential (LSD), but some do. Unless you have an STi or one of the rare older late 80s early 90s sporty Subarus, if you do have any type of limited slip differential it will be a 'viscous' type (VLSD).Jack up the rear of the car and spin one wheel while you watch how the other wheel spins. A Subaru with an LSD should have both rear wheels spinning in the same direction, but if it has the more common open-differential then one tire will spin in the opposite direction of the other.
The fluid capacity for a 2002 GMC Yukon XL with a limited slip differential is typically around 6 to 7 pints (approximately 3 to 3.5 quarts). However, it's always best to consult the owner's manual or a service manual for your specific vehicle to confirm the exact capacity and recommended fluid type. Additionally, when servicing the differential, ensure to check for any specific requirements related to limited slip additives if needed.
No it will not, There are different size carriers for different rear end houseing
For a 1979 Ford F-250, the recommended differential oil is typically 80W-90 gear oil for both the front and rear differentials. If the vehicle has a limited-slip differential, it's advisable to add a limited-slip additive to ensure proper function. Always check the owner's manual for any specific requirements or recommendations for your particular model and configuration.
Yes. This is an option. We have such a vehicle, and any 4W drive specialty shop (as well as dealer) can install it. Works as well as GM Positraction, and is similar in mechanical design.
