My wife just bought a 1997 Ford F150 XLT 2WD pick up from her brother. This is the first Ford we have owned. (Been mostly Mopar & Jeep people, LOL)
How can we find out if this truck has a Posi traction rear end in it?
My brother-in-law has no idea, he didn't have it very long before he sold it to us.
Thanks.

 

Go on the door and look at the sticker. Use this and it will help.

Axle code says it is a H9 – 3.55 LS. (LS=Limited Slip / Traction Lok)

Thanks a lot, that was a fast answer. LOL
BTW this is a great looking forum, looking to learn a lot more.

 

Your welcome and welcome to the forum. You are gonna learn a lot here. Lots of great guys with a lot of information for anything that you are gonna need.

 

Welcome to the site and lets see pics of the truck now lol

 

my old 97 xlt didn't have one. and it was 4x4. so i doubt the 2wd would. go light the tires up...if it kicks sideways...then you'r good. is the a truck a v8 or v6?

 

Wes, it's already determined that it does in fact have a LS.......read post #3.

 

yeah, but my method is a whole lot more fun.

 

Here are a couple of photos of her truck.
It used to be a white truck, her brother painted it a strange looking copper color. LOL

 

Not everyone is into abusing their trucks.

 

i mean, thats why i drive a Ford in the first place. to show off and know that it can handle the abuse.
