HMUSN · November 17th, 2006, 01:08 PM

a t-loc and some drag radials

sonicblue · November 17th, 2006, 02:38 PM

i dont think you should be having one wheel peels in a GT unless your in need of a rebuild

acehole · November 17th, 2006, 03:00 PM

only got 6,500 miles on it dont know what would need rebuilt

Drgnracin72 · November 17th, 2006, 03:44 PM

the diff you should be spinning both wheels easily and if only one is spinning you need to rebuild the rearend

ChrisJ · November 18th, 2006, 06:13 AM

You should have a T-Lok in there...

If not then you have rear-end issues...

peg legs suck. repack the clutches in your t-lok

is it a very involved job or is it pretty simple

matrixpuba · November 18th, 2006, 07:58 PM

very simple. hardest part is getting everything out to work on it.

sonicblue · November 18th, 2006, 08:23 PM

relatively inexpensive for parts also

matrixpuba · November 18th, 2006, 08:36 PM

think its around 40 bucks. i would buy 2 kits and over pack them too.

I feel you man, I have zero traction with my GT. and I only have bolt ons, I think the 4.10's are getting me. Plus my rear tires are almost bald. Its very natural to not have the traction you want in a GT. I dunno what these guys are saying about rebuilds n stuff, but you are def okay.

If you are looking for traction, I think what you wanna hear is some slightly wider tires, if you wanna run street tires. Or another option rubber wise is drag radials. Besides that, you wanna work on suspension, aftermarket lower and upper control arms will help your launch and traction greatly. I might be adding those next.
