Limited Slip Differential

flattusmaximus78 · September 24th, 2006, 08:51 PM

My plans now that I have my stang are to go with 4:10's... But Im not putting all that power to the right rear lol. I want as follows: limited slip differential, 4:10s ( it's an auto ) and a tuner.

Now I found this ford racing limited slip under there v6 section

http://www.lmperformance.com/7467/86.html

Will this work. I wont need a new t-lock right?

and two will I need a speed call or will a tune work?

Last but not least will I need a bearing rebuild kit?

Thanks guys

you will need the trac lok differential, ring and pinion gears, instal kit (shims, friction modifier), gear oil, tune, and install.

trac lok= 150
gears= 150
instal kit= 60
lube= 40
tune= 379.99
install= 200

you will be cheaper off buying a kit (gears, t lok, instal kit) from "Drivetrain Specialists" off ebay, sct xcal 2 from VMPTuning, install at a local shop, and lube from them too.

Ok so I guess thats the jist of it. To find drivetrain specialists on ebay do I just type it in on ebay?

i have the stock 7.5 rear end... ive heard that FRPP sells the 8.8 with 3.73 geard already in them... would i need a t-loc if i went that route?

Ninjawafers! · September 24th, 2006, 09:33 PM

i have an auto btw

tranny has nothing to do with rear end gears. if you buy an 8.8 complete rear assy., it will have a tlok factory

and Drivetrain Specialists is an ebay seller

Ninjawafers! · September 24th, 2006, 10:08 PM

haha i didnt think it had anything to do with the rear end... juss wondered if 3.73 was better or auto than 4.10

Sa-WaitNoMustang900Turbo · September 24th, 2006, 10:12 PM

4.10's are better for an auto, speed wise for bolt on v6es 3.73 manual = 4.10 auto

putting 3.73's in an auto wouldnt be very much of a gain in speed compared to putting in 4.10's

Ninjawafers! · September 24th, 2006, 10:14 PM

thats what i was thinking... i want to get an 8.8 rear and 4.10.. but does anyone sell the 8.8 with the 4.10s?

AtlanticBlue99 · September 24th, 2006, 10:14 PM

4.10s on auto or manual unless you are into 5th before the traps in the 1/4 with the manual. if this becomes the case, a taller tire can solve the prolem. 4.10 or broke

junkyards are cheapest. same body style gt mustang. take the entire rear axle assy.

itschristorres8 · September 24th, 2006, 10:14 PM

im getting 4.10's on my 5speed...cant fear the gear.

Ninjawafers! · September 24th, 2006, 10:15 PM

heh... junkyards are very slim on this island... there like 6,000 people here and most vehicles are 4x4 trucks.. cuz it is alaska lol

you could get one through ebay, but shipping will rape you. your 7.5" will handle a 13 second 1/4 time on the auto tranny. if you have a 5 speed, dont drop it with sticky tires from above 4k rpms and you should be okay too. but the 7.5" rear is not nearly as strong as the 8.8

Ninjawafers! · September 24th, 2006, 10:19 PM

i have the auto... so the 7.5 would hold up with bolt ons and S/C? i figure if im gonna haveta change it out might as well be on the top of the to do list

itschristorres8 · September 24th, 2006, 10:22 PM

if u get boltons and a s/c chances are ur gunna be running 12's high or low 13's so lik AB sed 7.5 can handle 13's

Ninjawafers! · September 24th, 2006, 10:26 PM

sweet... i dont really want to run anything faster than that... it would be cool but i think she'll be fast enough like that

AtlanticBlue99 · September 24th, 2006, 10:33 PM

you wont break the 7.5 with an auto trans and street tires

Ninjawafers! · September 24th, 2006, 10:37 PM

awesome... thats what i needed to know.... now to get a t-loc and 4.10 gears... oh yeah.. how would 4.10s effect my gas milage on highway driving... theres not one up here but i will be driving cross country when i get restationed and hopefully there will be highways there as well lol
