Test Drive
Hi all, still trying to find out PROPER rear diff oil to use in my 04 X.... standard gear oil with no limited slip additive or oil with limited slip additive ??? Seems like this would be simple buttttttttt no. How does one figure out if the truck is equiped with limited slip rear end????????? The truck has a HG 49 axle which is supposed to equate to whats also know as a HB223 . which to my admitted limited understanding = 4.9 gears. Ok great still dont know if this is limited slip rear end or not. Yes i have jacked rear end up and put truck in neutral and spun one wheel. while doing this wheels travel in opposite directions....told this would indicate no limited slip????? Howeverrrrrrrrrrrrr also told this is not necessarily a definite indicator of limited slip or not as there may not be enough torque on pinnion gear to turn wheels in same direction....HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP !!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG any help here would be much appreciated.
Have asked this on 1st gen X fourm < the silence is deafening
