prevent axle windup
• Solid rear axle design is typically more robust than
an independent rear suspension — effectively handling

enthusiasts seeking more performance
• Rear-wheel-drive/solid rear axle configuration is a key

OK, thanks Kevin! 
These are great! I spent about half an hour just going through it quickly. I think I'm going to reading this some more!

No more T-Lok on automatic GT's?
Traction-Lok Rear Differential
• Mustang GT models with a manual transmission feature a
Traction-Lok 8.8-inch rear differential for improved traction
and performance on slippery or uneven surfaces
• Often referred to as “limited-slip,” Traction-Lok transfers
driving force to the rear wheel with the best traction
• Great for customers living in rainy or cool climates, or for
customers prone to spirited acceleration or competitive driving
