I am trying to get a new axel for my car, and I have called a number of Part stores to order the axle. My problem is all of them ask me if my car has a "limited slip"? Now I know a good amout about cars but how can I tell if my car has that or not, so I can order the right parts I need?
thanks

call the dealer with vin number maybe... take the axel out and bring it in there may be a difference from one to the other... drive it and acclerate hard in snow to see if both wheels spin appositely ... not a good idea on the last one hard on transmission...
