For a while I was wondering if traction control was an option on the 08/09 SS/TC because when you go to chevy.com the option listed says "differential, stability control system" so I figured if you had the button, you had the LSD. Im sure many of you know that this is not true. I honestly can't believe that GM would make LSD an option still. Well, I have stability control button and on my spec sheet I have JL4 (stability control system) but no G85... Im disappointed, to say the least. I havent run into any problems so far seeing that I only drive around town, but I wanted to Auto Cross with this car eventually and i know i can control the car in a straight line at the track, but NEVER around a corner with out LSD. Sooo this leads me to my question.. Can LSD be added to the car if it doesnt have it as a factory option, using factory LSD or aftermarket? Or do I just need a new transmission?

 

yes, you can add an LSD, either aftermarket or OEM. Quaife is a great piece of equipment.

 

If you road course or auto cross then it's a problem. If not then don't waste your time or money.

 

yeah exactly my point, i really wanted to auto cross.. but yeah im glad that I can add it. I just wonder if my tranny were to blow up..... would GM (for $495) put in a tranny with LSD hahaha under warrenty.

 

It's possible

btw, where from in jersey?

 

any one know what type of limited slip we have stock?

 

i thought it was a quiffe or something like that

 

Im From Belleville, NJ its North Jersey

 

that sucks man

 

Yea that doesn't make any sense that they don't come with an lsd my moms sentra came with one as a standard equipment.....I'm just glad I got lucky and found a g85 car

 

There is one on ebay for 500 right now. You could take tit to a tranny shop and they could probably put it in for around 600.

 

$600 seems low for labor if you're talking about just putting in an LSD. That's IF you can find a shop willing to touch the F35. 95% of shops WILL NOT service that transmission. When you find one that will service it, they're going to charge an arm and a leg. Cheapest way to go would just be to buy an LSD equipped transmission and put it in yourself.
