I have a 1982 mustang with a open differential that I got for free. I'm tight on money and want a limited slip. Was wondering if I could use the spider gears and clutch plates from a limited slip vehicle from the wrecking yard. Then stick them into my differential. Or is there a kit for this?
If you can find a 8.8 Traction Loc in the junk yard, just rebuild it, slap your ring gear on it, and put it in your car. I don't *think* the open diff carrier will accept the parts to make it a LSD. Ford Racing sells a kit to rebuild Traction Locs, IIRC it's only $50 or so.
