Hello, I have a 90 fullsize bronco with an 5.8, $wheel drive and and auto trans. My rear diff that is having the trouble is an ford 8.8 with 3.73's and supposedly a fatory limited slip or whatever ford would offer of that type. While driving up a not so steep hill in 2 wheel drive, the truck stopped moving and started grinding very loud. I was able to get home with the front wheels engaged. After a little experimentation if you will, I have discoverd that if I put the vehicle in drive, and let off the brake (at idle) the truck will start to move forward, but after a foot, it stps and the gears grind in the rear end. My father had a used rear end put in 6 months before. I dont would liket o buy the parts for it but dont know which ones to buy, if its safe to buy used, and what the parts are called. If possible id like to put a posi in the diff, but dont know what parts or assembly to buy.
