It is all helping! It's when I'm in 2wd going up a 6 or 7% grade at 60 and the auto tranny drops down into drive that concerns me. It's much more...
I am getting an education though. Apparently all Limited slips are not the same. But my clutch based one has its inherent problems going straight...
Just trying to figure it out... without dying :) And I sure didn't mean to insult the folk trying to help me out. I don't know if it is better...
Okay... now that I Googled Limited slip I found exactly what I was looking for. I will be removing the limited slip differential... sideways at...
Okay... I found this: Positractions & Limited Slips: Transmits equal torque to both wheels when driving straight ahead. However when one wheel...
Am I confused here? Is limited slip really the same as post-traction? Is it a common thing to have? And is it quite safe on snowy/icy roads? It...

Lol... near as I can figure it may have originated with that other truck brand who's emblem actually does look like a bowtie. The grille emblem is...

It was actually listed as a Bowtie and sold as such. Still... it's nice to have the blue oval Ford emblem looking good! No idea why they called...
Hey guys, Just had the final service on my 150 and found out I have a $2k upgrade in my rear end in the form of a Yukon heavy duty posi...
Finishing touches... replacing the crushed Bowtie on the airbag. Couldn't get the tabs to hold it quite right, so I clipped them off and used Goop...
