Dude, its a good unit.

Its been tried and tested for decades.


Go with it!!



Congrats and definatly post back with your results!


You should find out if you can buy the internal clutch packs and gears first before ordering a whole carrier unit.

I'm not sure if you can make a Ford open diff a limited slip or not.... They look very similer besides the clutches.

I don't think you can, but I'm not sure///

Won't hurt to ask, or maybe another member has some helpful info on a conversion if possible.

Save you $$$

 

thanks for the help man

 

No prob


I added to my post before this...Check it out if you didn't

Ask around about that.

 

Seems like ive read that you can but maybe someone will post and confirm one way or the other. I thought if you had a open diff there was nothing there?

 

No.

The planetary or side gears are still there, just no clutch discs and S clip to create the resistance of a LS.

Start a new thread asking the question 8.8 open diff to LS.

You do have an 8.8 I think... With a v6 you should.

 

yep yep 8.8

 

Cool.

See what you can dig up.

Good luck Mud.
