Does 05+ mustangs have Limited Slip Differenials? LSD

 

they come with a "traction lock" differential (the GTs at least), I believe. Not as good as an LSD I guess?

 

It is a limited slip, yes. They operate on clutches in the differential. Choices are 3.31 or 3.55 axle ratio depending on if you have an auto, manual. 3.55 was the only choice on 05-06 manuals, 3.31 only choice on 05-06 autos. 07-08 standard was 3.31 on all models, unless you paid extra for the 3.55 available on manuals only.

 

Traction-Lok is Ford/Visteon's clutch based limited slip differential technology.

 

"-The car that made these two, equal-length tire marks had positraction. You can't make these marks without positraction, which was not available on the '64 Buick Skylark!
-And why not? What is positraction?
-It's a limited slip differential which distributes power equally to both the right and left tires. The '64 Skylark had a regular differential, which, anyone who's been stuck in the mud in Alabama knows, you step on the gas, one tire spins, the other tire does nothing. "
