i believe that most LXs came with the 2.73 rear end compared to the 3.08 in most GTs

Unless optioned with the 3.08's, they all came with 2.73's standard. Later Auto's ('89-up} had the 3.27 option as well.

GT = appearance package. You got a few more goodies and features that the LX cars didn't have (seats and more). I've heard that the GT ground effects are actually functional and helps keep the car planted down at high speeds, if anyone can verify that for me.

My GT is not stable at high speeds, but it could be the 16 year old suspension parts
