Nooo question

[Magnum5.9]

I jacked up my rear end by the pumpkin and spun the tires do see if I have an open differential or limited slip. When I spun one tire forward, the other tire would spin in reverse and when I spin it in reverse, the other one would spin forward. I did this on both sides of the axle and got the same result.

The dealership told me I do not have limited slip.

Whay do you guys think?

 

[dodge dude94]

You have an open.

 

[bassslayer25]

Are you in the process of lifting it??

Not yet, I've been too busy fishing and turkey hunting

But the coils, spacers, shocks, track bar, etc sit in the garage and stare at the truck ever night lol

Oh man theres something wrong with you. lol All my parts weren't sitting out for more than 30 mins before I started taking old parts off the truck.

You have an open.

Damn

Will the power ever transfer back and forth to the left and right wheels when I'm slipping or does only the driver side wheel have power 100% of the time

2 weekends from now is the date I'm planning on throwing the lift on

Gotta get me a tom (turkey) first

But in all seriousness, I hate seeing the parts on the garage floor instead on the truck

 

[bassslayer25]

Well shoot the som' ***** and get the lift on

It can if there is equal traction on both sides.
Or you could have a brake drag and it catches the one tire and equals it out.
That's how on these newer trucks you can have an open diff, but two wheel peel it because the traction control kicks in and activates the one brake which equals the power distribution out.

Works okay for the road, but on the dirt that **** will make a vehicle limp.

 

[Magnum5.9]

Does Limited slip diff make it so that the tires spin the same way when you jack up the rear end and spin one tire?

 

[dodge dude94]

Yep it does.

Explain how that's possible if the driveshaft is not moving?

Spider gears........

 

[Crocdocs]

Yea that's what I have in mine, I have a trac loc. when you jack it up and spin one tire the other one spins the same direction. Throw in a limited slip!

Spider gears........

I would think the tranny needs to be in neutral allowing driveshaft to turn. It should lock if in park.

Lol being in N or P will give diff results doing this test boys..............

I did the test with the truck in park.. means I have an open diff correct?

That's my point. I have a TrueTrac in my Dakota, will check this weekend.
