Quick 12 bolt question....

I was looking at the rust spots on rear quarters the other day when I noticed one of my tires was starting to look like a slick.

I know its left two black marks before, and I can here both of them spinnin when my windows down....or so I thought.

Arent these trucks limited slip?

Thanks,
Mitch

Re: Quick 12 bolt question....

Some are one leggers. Limited slip (Posi) was an option. Check your glove box option list for positraction.

Re: Quick 12 bolt question....

If your right rear tire is has more wear than the left you prolly have a one wheel wonder. Also, if you jack the rear end up and spin the tires they should "generally" go in the same direction if it's a true posi. Other wise they spin the opposite direction.
