Does Ford have Positraction?
Never get stuck again! A good do it yourself project, no gauges or dial indicator required, installation without requiring reset up of ring and pinion back lash! The Powertrax® Traction No-slip systems are the latest design in traction adding differential technology.
What is Ford Posi Traction?
“Posi-Traction” is simply a GM name for their limited slip differential. Ford’s name is Traction-Loc.
What is better posi or limited slip?
The limited-slip differential is similar to the positraction differential, but allows the wheel with traction to have only a limited amount of greater power than the wheel that is slipping. A limited-slip differential will prevent the tire with less traction from separately spinning.
What is Ford Positraction called?
A limited-slip differential (LSD) is a type of differential that allows its two output shafts to rotate at different speeds but limits the maximum difference between the two shafts. Limited-slip differentials are often known by the generic trademark Positraction, a brand name owned by General Motors.
What does Ford call their limited-slip differential?
Ford’s limited-slip differential is called traction-loc (though the spelling has changed over the years). Trac-loc differentials use a mechanical clutch system to lock the wheels when necessary.
How much does a Detroit Locker cost?

What is the difference between a locker and posi?
With a locker both wheels will spin at the same speed. With a posi it allows the wheels to turn at differenthe speeds. When turning the inside wheel needs to turn slower than the outside .
What is the difference between a Detroit Locker and Truetrac?
The Truetrac is a helical gear limited slip differential, not a “locker”. The Truetrac operates by transferring power from the spinning wheel to the wheel with the most traction. If one tire breaks traction, the amount of rotation (or spin) is controlled by transferring the lost traction to the higher traction wheel.
What is Trac Lok?
The Spicer Trac-Lok provides improved traction capability without requiring switches, wires, sensors, air hoses or manual input from the driver. During a slip event, it automatically sends approximately three times more torque to the high-traction wheel-end.
