Laught At Me If You Want, But I Gotta Ask

Ok...What are the standard rear ends in the GSL, and the GSL-SE? Is it limited slip? Posi? Some other thing? I was just wondering...No real reason to know. Thanks anyway.

Positrac is just a brand name for limited slip.

And all the GSL and GSL-SE's have limited slip.

At least they came off the production line with em. Some idiots complained about the noise and had em switched.

I heard about that...Wasnt it because they would go around corners or something and they would make too much noise and vibrate or something like that? Besides, what did they have them switched to?

They probably chattered going round corners. (mine did that w/o the LSD additive)

They must of switched em to regular open rear differentials.
