Bringing this thread back lol. I believe my issue may be
Related to the leak :/. What if my leak has been going on so long that it possibly dried up inside? I haven't torn it apart yet, but I feel slippage or possible stuck traction control when going into boost. I used to think it was my clutch... Ideas! I had a thread about this just made too

There are two metal tags, one tells you diff specs, gear ratio etc. IE: 3:L55
The L is for traction lock in the ratio number.

The other metal tag is the fluid spec, because the is very little fluid in it, it gets hot as HELL! Ford specs a full synthetic 75w140 gear lube with friction modifier for the traction lock clutches.

Hmmmm, traction lock clutches? Please tell more. Appreciated :)

Also feels like a bogging sometimes though with traction control off. Only reason I was thinking it could be diff related
