limited slip has too much slip
Hi, my 89 f150 with a 3.55 8.8 Limited Slip diff seems to slip too much in my opinion, what can be done to help tighten it up??

Re: limited slip has too much slip
I recently had to park on a grassy incline, while going back up it it just spun the rr wheel all the way up it. is there any additive that might help it?

Sounds like it may be time to replace the steels and friction discs inside the differential. Traction-Lok differentials should also have 4-ounces of friction modifier added to the gear oil.
