Ok i have an 01 explorer 4wd. How do i determine if i need to add the additive to the diff when do a fluid change. I can look for id tag and get code do you have codes on here to tell me if i have limited slip. its hard to tell because if i go onto dirt and peel out front grabs i have 4wd but front wants to grab if i do and hard for me to tell thanks for any imput. Sorry to sound stupid but I am just not sure.
