Hey k so i have a 1990 f150 4x4 5.8L w/ E4OD trans, my door jab sticker says H9 for my axle code, so that means i have a 3.55 limited slip right? and if so then both of my tires should spin right?

if u jack the rear end of your truck up and spin the one tire, the other one should spin the opposite way

You may haave a very, very worn out limited slip.
Or a previous owner may have replaced the LS with an open

After 18 years it is a safe bet the clutch pack is toast. Fastest way to tell is to stand on it. One wheel peel or both hookin' up and spinning you around will determine it right quick.
