rear axle trouble????

[chief44]

I was showing my stepson( who is 16) how to do a burn out so he could see what the car is capable of. I noticed that it is only spinning one wheel. The passenger one. What could be wrong and how to check and fix it.

Try changing the fluid first. If the problem still persists you may have to replace the clutches in the trak-lok unit.

And you hear any type of weird noises coming from the rear don't drive it again before you inspect it. I had a knocking noise develop and one day in a parking I stepped on it in first and completely blew my diff and ruined my gears.

perfect "father-son" job. its real easy to do follow that link and buy the clutch rebuild kit.... if you need to know how to do it, let myself or the forum know and we can guide you through it. if your not mechanically inclined let a professional do the job.... either way good luck!

lol, that was a good question, my stang just went over 215,000 miles. It still runs great. I was also thinking of going with 373's. maybe now is the time.

ya if thats the mileage on the original rear end i would think its time for a traction lok rebuild and gear upgrade if you like...

Anytime is a good time for 3.73's!!!!

See the link at the bottom of my sig. In that thread, it has the 3 install articles I used to do mine. PM me if you don't understand something. It's very difficult to understand it without actually doing it, though.

Change the fluid and make sure you add the friction modifier. Mine was doing the one wheel peel occasionaly 2 years ago, I changed fluid and itll smoke both tires until I let off the gas. It hasnt done the gay one wheel EVER again, and ive gone through 2 sets of rear tires in this time

I bet this is most likely your problem.
