Why does my limited slip rear end only spin one tire sometimes??
I have a limited slip disc brake rear end out of a 91 Z28 and when I turn to the right and floor it, only the right tire spins but when I turn left they both spin. Also when I go strait or power brake it they both spin. I just don't understand why it only spins the right tire when I turn to the right.
Thanks!

Change the fluid and add some limited slip additive and see if that helps at all.

do I have to change the rear end fluid or can I just add the limited slip additive? My rear end fluid really isn't that old maybe 5-6 Months. Also where can I get limited slip additive?
Thanks!

OK... but explain this...
I have the stock 3.23 in my 89 IROC and I can pretty much only get two tires spinning if I am power breaking with the 700R4 shifter in "2" or "D." If I do it in "1" or "OD" it only spins one tire.
Can anyone explain this???

Get the limited slip additive at your GM Dealer. It costs about $10. Use only the GM additive, because its the one that works the best.
