Re: does my 89 rs 5.0 tbi have posi trac

If the TBI car is an auto, it has a 2.73 peg leg rear, if it's a manual, has a 3.08 and might be posi. The 2.8 litre car will have 3.42's, don't know about posi.

The posi is more probable in the manual transmission cars than the automatics.

The posi rear will have a tag attached by one of the cover bolts that reads: "Limited slip additive required"
