i pretty sure there was a post about weather or not 4t60-e's have lsd but i searched and cant find one, all i find is about putting one in. its strange because it seems like i have one but i dont think they came with them did they? thanks.

see thats why i think i might have one because iv gone around a corner in my neighborhood that has a grass shoulder and i dip the right tire in the grass and get on it and the car takes off but dosnt really spin the one tire, if i put both tires in the grass they spin like crazy. weird huh?

An open diff will spin both of them when there is equal traction to both tires. Its only when one has less traction than the other where 1 of them will spin.

:roll: sigh

 

When a 1 wheel peeler starts rippin both wheels in things other than grass.....usually means the diff is gettin spent.

not nessecarilly...the old 282 in the Quad 4 Cutlass is in perfect shape and it leaves 'em with both tires as long as you are going straight

My car has never done a one wheel wonder when I have spun the tires :shrug:

 

Ive spun the tires on basically any surface. dirt grass snow, it has always spun 2 tires. And yes I have spun the tires on dry pavement. I did today on my way to john's house. (Snow tires dont grip dry pavement very well :twisted: )

Doesn't that have equal length half-shafts, though?

yea but with one tire in the grass the car just goes and dosnt spin the one tire. and around corners in the rain it wont spin the inside one going around corners, they bouth just kinda chirp. is there a way someone could have put one in?

It is possible that someone put one in, because they are available, however its very unlikely and I really highly doubt it. Every car I've ever had with a 4t60 spun both tires with no problems. I think I've only ever gotten one one wheel that I can remember in a car with a 4t60 and thats because I was turning a corner in the rain and the turbo spooled.

 

I know my T/A has an open diff, but that always spins both tires as well. It just depends on the driving situtation. I would just look at it as and advantage that you don't have to put in an LSD because your open diff has no problems smoking both.
