Your limited slip took a poop. Time to look for an Auburn unit and have it rebuilt.

Or better off looking for a take-off Zexel Torsen diff. SLP did sell them for $100, but have now ran out. These are the diffs in 98+ F-bodies and have no clutch pack to wear out, they are also pretty strong, especially for the price. You can usually find these in the For Sale section, or on eBay.

I think when theyre on the way out they occasionally work and dont work.

Some people say that just changing the fluid solved their problems, so you might want to try that before replacing things, or just do that anyways...

and don't forget to add the GM Limited slip additive when you change it.

when in the wet box go 2nd gear at 5k and just dump it. if you pussyfoot it your gonna burn up the diff and your not gonna grab any traction in the wet box so no need to worry about that
